Hi Terje!
Thanks for your reply.
I switched again to mode 4 and started again to see if I missed something. I
believe I'll only have to wait 10000 seconds = 2 hours and 46 minutes... not
much. :-)
Unfortunatelly clockstats doesn't show position, only time. I believe this
is because it's in position lock (0D?) mode. Here's a sample:
55810 40276.220 127.127.30.0 3524296275.999957838 2011 249 11 11 16 15
rstat 08 dop 0.0 nsat 10,2 traim 1,0,1 sigma 77 neg-sawtooth -24 sat
35000080
By the way... I was looking at the clockstats file and noticed that when I
switched to mode 4 as I said earlier I got this

It seems this is my location... :-) Now you know where I live! :-)
So the position is stored in the shared memory and when I reset the unit
(mode 4) it uses the position stored in there.
Anyone help care to comment this?
That seems like canonical behaviour, i.e. the way you want it.
As long as that position is within 3-5 m your timestamps will be within
10-15 ns, which is comparable to the inherent jitter in Oncore timing
receivers.
For NTPD it is far better than you actually need, except TRAIM might
cause problems if you started with a position 300 m (1 us) off.
