Is the above delta seen between Japanese and North American time
sources purely the delta between the outbound / return network path or

AFAIK, there is no way to be sure! What is certain is that using sources that distant from your site leaves plenty of room for error!

I try to use sources within 300 miles or less. My home system uses a GPS receiver as its primary source. This will work in most "reasonable" locations! It also provides extremely good accuracy!
