I think whatever gpsd is doing is currently buggy. At least relative to what
ntpd expects.
With the default Venus setup, it sends GPGGA and GPRMC (and others). Both
have time and gpsmon shows two time updates.
The problem is that you are giving two different offsets per second so which
one ntpd sees depends on when in the second it happens to poll the SHM
segment. I don't care which one you use. I can work with either one. They
both need fudging.
You can use both as long as they give the same answer. It might be
interesting to see if both point to the same place if you subtract off the
delay due to the NMEA sentences you have seen already this burst.
This may all be tangled up with the start-too-early problem. When I look at
an Adafruit HAT or a GR-601, both send GPGGA and GPRMC but I only see 1 time
update per second on gpsmon. (Both have a .00 seconds fractional part.)
