Sounds like I don't have any reason _not_ to put my Frontier server in the pool then. The local clients are just my home computers and I'm not overly worried about an error measured in single or double digit milliseconds. My main concern was pushing bad time to WAN clients but my server is stratum 2 so it sounds like that won't be an issue.
