Next step....I added back GPS NEMA data without the gpsd daemon (I
don't pass the data out to anywhere so there's no real need for it)

and I see

# ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset
jitter

I have good PPS and am getting GPS NEMA in as well but the offset for
the NEMA data seems quite large....what would I do to fix that??
