I have big issues with both sites.  Having done in situ hybridization professionally for several years, I can tell you that it is not possible to measure teleomere length with any accuracy with this method.  It's not just a matter of precision, the technique itself is not meant for that purpose and is not used for "sizing".  It is typically used for marker placement.
 
I can go into specific detail about problems with each site if anyone wants a rundown.
