You may find some helpful information on my Web page:

   https://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/Raspberry-Pi-quickstart.html

about using a GPS/PPS device with a Raspberry Pi.  This gets you down into the 
microsecond region at a low cost and a low power consumption - helpful as 
leaving the device on 24x7 is best.

Be aware that many of the public stratum-1 servers are overloaded and perhaps 
not as good as you might want.

Cheers,
David
