No, it really is a DCF-77 signal. >However, when you have expectations that you can control what source >is used to sync your clock, and how quickly that switches, you cannot >use ntpd. It does not offer that control. I don't want to control what source is used, just how fast it is switched when the signal is lost. minpoll and maxpoll seem to control that, and i guess i just need smaller maxpoll than the one that is allowed. I have set minpoll to 4 and maxpoll to 5. After the signal is lost it takes 3 to 4 minutes to switch to another source. Why does it take so long when maxpoll is 5 (32 seconds)? How many times must a poll fail until the source is expected to be unrecoverrable for now?
