I can assure you that the time reported by the quoted gpsclock site is NOT the time reported by GPS devices. It's really easy to demonstrate: Compare what you see on your GPS with what's displayed from the web site. The quoted time is around 15 seconds ahead of the time from the GPS device. I wonder what that's really all about?
