Thanks John and All;
It appears NTP solves the clock drift problem in Linux systems, completely.
As soon as I can ferret out the HAL bits and pieces needed to keep the
generator synced to the PC clock, this problem is solved.
Any clues of the bits and pieces needed would give me a great jump start.

    Sincere Thanks
        Don
