Is the TXCO also used to clock the ARM? If so a PPS derived only
from the TXCO does not add anything. But if the ARm is running off
a lower quality crystal then the PPS would help.
I think the best thing is to let ntpd choose the clock. simply
configure it to use the nmea and pps and when/if one of them goes away
It is actually pretty good at doing the right thing
