What kind of deadband measurements have people been getting for digital governor systems? I've tested the Woodward HR Gateshaft in the ~-.002Hz/+.008Hz and as bad as -.019Hz/+.023Hz. Woodward A-Type to +/-.017Hz, and Woodward Cabinet to .0088Hz/.017Hz for sensitivity on the head. (This is neglecting operating ring wear).

I'm just curious of the digital governor sensitivity.
