Re: [chrony-users] Setting up Chrony with PPS

I believe the stats that appear below with show that the system problem was just poor antenna placement.

When chronyd has some NTP sources, you may want to tweak the offset
value of the SHM refclock so the measured offset as reported in
"chronyc sourcestats" is close to zero and the PPS signal can be
locked to it properly.

Given the figures below, how should offset and delay be calculated?

Finally, any other suggestions for how to setup chrony.conf to quickly converge to PPS time after startup or acquisition of GPS signal?

chrony.conf:

server 0.us.pool.ntp.org
server 1.us.pool.ntp.org
server 2.us.pool.ntp.org
server 3.us.pool.ntp.org

refclock PPS /dev/pps0 lock NMEA refid PPS
refclock SHM 0 offset 0.5 delay 0.2 refid NMEA noselect
