Pierre, The NTPv4 driver interface already implements a trimmed-mean filter, which cleans up a good deal of jitter as it is. The IRIG and CHU drivers do a lot more signal processing, yielding generally low jitter in the tens of microseconds. Deglitching and filtering noisy time sampls is somewhat

According to Pierre Beyssac: absolutely no reason why you should enable PARENB for a raw DCF77 driver; yet that's what ntpd's configure does, at least under FreeBSD. Yes, it seems to be that again. I thought I had fixed it in config.cache but it seems not. It is working now. remote

Ollivier, For performance monitoring with the nanokernel and PPS source, see the peerstats and grope for 127.0.0.1 with grep. When the daemon has handed off PPS to the kernel, the radio timecode is used only to mean the transmitter is still on the air. Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to

This looks like a reception problem. You must be pretty far out in the reception area of DCF77 (just like me), and will probably find that whenever a sunrise or sunset is in the area reception sux. Try to see if it does better in daylight... I don't know the state of the DCF77/parse stuff in
