sorry about the line breaks...
is this better?

You line breaks are a mess. You gps is not getting any data, and thus pps cannot work. Your system needs to get the approximate time ( to better than 1/4 of a second) from somewhere else than PPS, since PPS give no information about the actual time. Just when the turn of the second occurs. What is your chrony.conf file? How have you connected up gpsd? Is it seeing the gps source? William G.
