At my QTH both of those servers are Stratum 2 and within a few hundredths
of a second of the Right Time.

Odd that you see them as Stratum 3, maybe you've got a firewall pulling
tricks on you :-).

The best way to configure a NTP client is with multiple (preferably
3 or 4) servers, ideally nearby network-wise and diverse time-source
wise. It's pretty sad how almost all stratum 1's are locked to GPS
these days. If your NTP software doesn't support multiple servers,
it is REALLY REALLY a good idea to move to something that does...
