I'm curious to know if they block the NTP port as a fix to the ntpd
monlist amplification attacks.

This shows that the two sources don't overlap (i.e. 360 +/- 5 ms is
outside 1ms +/- 84).

You can set the delay and offset options for the refclock so it
overlaps with the other source. Try "offset 0.36 delay 0.1".
However, without PPS, the timing signal from serial GPS is usually
much worse than what is possible with NTP over internet. You can try
adding "noselect" to the refclock and see how stable it when compared
to the NTP source in the chronyc sourcestats output.
