Hi Philip,
Looking at the code, it seems that the Atlas NTP measurement computes the offset with exactly the opposite sign compared to the NTP RFCs.
I never noticed before.
Thanks. Since we are on it, the timestamps are _correct_ , so any user can still compute the offset based on the data Question: how does Atlas computes the `precision` field? I had someone telling on the NTP pool that `Precision from RIPE Atlas probes looks rather low to me (4x10E-6).` Thanks, /giovane [0] https://community.ntppool.org/t/site-to-evaluate-ntp-servers/3931/2
