That helps, but one still needs to convert HH:MM:SS to seconds since midnight to correlate. If you want many eyes on the prize, do it for us an point out the correlation of, for example, a spike_detect and loopstats entry. > I guess I can try NMEA for a diagnosis but actually want the GPS to be in > SiRF binary because I planned on using the gpsd data elsewhere, too. You ignored the "at least for testing". Also I suspect gpsd can operate just fine with NMEA input -- I don't see why using gpsd implies binary. > Splitting the GPS to another machine will probably be easier. > > If I set up the clockstats, do I need to configure flag4 on the PPS refclock > for it to record PPS data? Without fudge flag4 1, refclock_atom logs nothing to clockstats. With that flag, it logs each offset (per second, not per poll). I don't know why I spend time looking at code to answer such questions. I'm getting fed up with handholding.
