11. The frequencies of resonant modes in our mounting box are consistent with its dimensions, and are not correlated with the spurious resonators. Additionally, the resonator frequency of the measurement SQUID depends on its bias current - no change in the frequencies of spurious resonators was observed as this bias was varied.
12. c, we believe our tunneling-channel model is more physically realistic.
