Hi Magnus

You are correct in a way. The code  is more complicated than it should have been. 

The first row with comment “corr for time” is the I-term. 

The second row that integrates the frequency offset is the P-term and could have been just proportional to the time offset I understand now (I have thought of it before but totally forgot it). 

As I choosed to work with integers I have to scale the values to avoid truncation errors (that I still get with large time constants ☹. Probably it would be better to use floating point calculations.

Rather than having a PI loop it looks like both the P and I branch 
integrates. I'm also unclear about the loop gain changes by the 
pre-filter averager.
