Hi, I'm not exactly sure what this tool is doing, but most likely explanation for the difference between those clocks is due to leap second offset (currently 37 seconds).
I believe RT should be UTC, and the PHC should be TAI (37 seconds in front of TAI). phc2sys should add the offset (either from config or from the announce message). Have you configured that?
