I assumed so from the statements relating to time, in particular the PTB 
time transfer test proving a 2,3 ns difference. Which still doesn't 
satisfy my curiosity.

A 60 ns offset between the sites would account for the "missing time".
Similarly a 18 m shorter distance would also account for the "missing 
time". Due to the large distance I would start in that end to ensure it 
works.

This article puts focus into precission time-transfer between two sites.

A fiber-based time-transfer would be nice complementary as it would 
provide an independent timing path.

Cheers,
Magnus
