[teqc] dumb clock questions

[Geoff Blewitt]

Andrew,
   I would think this is normal.  Its likely the actual clock offsets 
were precisely the standard 1 msec, but that offsets that clockprep 
detects in the range and phase data are also subject to change in range 
from epoch to epoch. The additional data offsets have a magnitude of 
about 2% of 1 msec, corresponding to ~ 6 km in range which is in the 
ballpark for 15 sec intervals.  Jeff can correct me if this is not normal.
