Whee! & Welcome :-)

I'm seeing a 150±80µs delta to gps.dix.dk from two well-connected machines.

I have upgraded FreeBSD on gps.dix.dk a couple of times, without
recalibrating the packet-processing delay, and the poor little
Soekris NET4501 is close to capacity, so I'm not alarmed :-)

The gps.dix.dk hardware is more than 20 years old, but as long as it ticks,
it will keep ticking :-)
