My guess is your input signal is too strong.  I had to add an external 
divider before I could get my setup to work.

The driver has an AGC.  The gain gets printed out in the clockstats line.

Several of the drivers will handle the PPS stuff themselves but there is also 
a separate PPS only driver - 22.  It needs something else to tell it the 
second.  It should work with the IRIG driver once you get that going, but 
I've never done it.  (It uses the prefer keyword.)
