I and many other "time-and-frequency >geeks" think that time announcements should be correct. <----If one runs an IRLP node, there is a really simple way to set the clock of your controller every X hours to insure accuracy. I have posted the scripts needed to do this (quite simple to implement) in the files section of our yahoogroups mailing list (I probably should post them to our website as well). Running NTP on your IRLP node insures great accuracy. Alternately, we will be adding support to our products to use NEMA data from a cheap GPS for clock accuracy in the near future as well.
