If you ask for a site survey, the ONCORE driver will average the next 10000
positions, taken at 1s intervals, which takes about 3hours.

It puts the result in the clockstats file (I accumulate this in /var/log/ntpstats/clockstats)
and in the messages log, with log-level LOG_NOTICE.  The default is for messages with
log-level of LOG_NOTICE and above to get logged, so the messages should be there too.

In either case, grep for the string 'ONCORE_SS_DONE' .  That will be followed by a message that
says 'Surveyed posn:'  and the position as lat/lon/ht.

Good luck.
