I have discovered the even though cgps does not report position or time using the Thunderbolt, the stock gpsd is getting enough timing data to update ntp. Gpsd is selected as the sys.peer with a jitter of about .8. It looks like the PPS pulse is too narrow to be detected on DCD, I am going to investigate a pulse stretcher available from TAPR http://tapr.org/kits_fatpps.html and will see if that helps. FWIW, Centos 5.1 selinux allows gpsd to update the ntp shared memory segment out of the box. 73, _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
