My system with Sure GPS and PPS :
ident mean rms max
127.127.22.2 0.000 0.004 0.030
The 30 usec offsets are during the morning at time the
system logs are created and rotated.
I'll try to insulate the xtal when I next have to move
the pc but I don't know that the blips in offset are
caused by increase in temperature.
