No it doesn't. It is basically a feedback controller.
If you take a modern central heating controller, which varies the output

It is not a hypothesis. It a human scale example, representative of

That 11 second figure was for a warm restart of ntpd on a running (and

According to the FCC info, the problem is due to old GPS units not
sufficiently filtering out the adjacent bands that were previously
empty. Since the bands are currently empty, I am not so sure that it is
only older unit

The new adjacent channel signal could be arbitrarily strong. You have

There are two sides with different figures. The GPS industry says that
500,000,000 units would be affected. The company LightSquared says it is
really 200,000. The DOD standards for GPS receivers issued in 2008 says

Brian,
See the release notes for the latest distribution in the online
documentation.
There has been a bit of facebook engineering in this discussion. For the
real story, see the How NTP Works pages in the latest online documentation.
