... Jitter is usually very small in magnitude and random in effect, and is not expected to lead to systematic throughput changes. ... However, such a change should lead to an obvious decline in the strength of the comparison lines at one end of the spectrum relative to the other and not an overall decline in counts. No such effect is seen (the counts decline evenly from one end of the spectrum to the other). ... The value changes steadily, but not by enough to account for the changes in counts seen. ...
