ppsctl says (among other things):
-oXY Set PPS API offset for `X' events (a|c) to `Y'ns
That is, with "-oa123" you set an offset to assert events ('a') to
123ns. Similarly for 'c'lear events and negative numbers.
You should be able to set the correction outside of ntpd once the PPS API is
set up. I haven't tried ever, however.
The magic of "fudge1" should be explained in the various driver's
documentation pages.
Hope this help,
Ulrich
