I got one of each.  My test bench is crowded and cross-calibrated.

In today's setup, the pulse is 1 mSec, 1 mSec NTP peered to the PtP
master, and the error I see varies from -400 mSec to 800 mSec.

So even if I am on the wrong edge of the master PPS, the two paths
should still be equal offset to UTC.
