Hi David,
Yes, You mean the hourly dips? That is caused by the the VLF receive
software that
is running on the same PI. It makes hourly recordings of DC to 24 Khz
with a USB soundcard. The CPU is running at max capacity most of the
time.

Perhaps it is now time for a dedicated PI, that only has the task of
playing Stratum One.

If anyone is interested:
