==Table of adjustable relays==
Note that for a glider relay supporting periods of the form <tt>c<sub>1</sub>+c<sub>0</sub>*n</tt>, if the following conditions are met:
*gliders are reflected 180º between two ends without offsetting their [[lane]],
*the oscillating components at its ends (when the gliders are removed) have a period divisible by <tt>2</tt> but not <tt>4</tt> (such as [[unices]] in the [[p42 glider shuttle]]),
then using two copies of the relay, whose gliders reflect off each other in a [[rephaser]], to provide a set of oscillators of the form <tt>c<sub>2</sub>+c<sub>0</sub>*n</tt>, where <tt>c<sub>2</sub> ≡ c<sub>1</sub> + {{frac|c<sub>0</sub>|2}} ([[Modular congruence|mod]] c<sub>0</sub>)</tt>
