18. E. Almaas, D. Stroud (private communication) have informed us that the threshold reported in the simulations of reference [12] is of the same type as we find in our simulations, and is due to the fact that at fixed current it is impossible to bias on low-number steps. When they bias on any step in their simulations, the find that phase locking occurs, in agreement with our results
