Mal,
It's called “stepwise refinement”. Stefan's experiments need a steady signal of known characteristics that is always there. He can use that signal to establish how well (or otherwise) his new configuration works.
It is not easy to do these things if you have to depend on signals which may not always be there.
When you have made sufficient improvements, it is then a good time to go looking for weaker signals.
