NOTE: "Unprecedented Syntonization"
It takes a good dictionary to find the word syntonization. Synchronization means the clock times agree. Syntonization means the clock rates agree. They differ by a derivative, and unless differentiated appropriately in the vernacular, much confusion arises. Telecom almost always uses the word "synchronization" when they mean "syntonization."D.W.
