Yes, the non-trivial nature of the software and the interaction with the hardware likely has eaten up some of the clock cycles which means that the firmware needs to be told that fewer clcok cycles need to be counted to keep the UTC clock on time (or is it more??... end of a long day...).
My FT-857 also hears zero beat at 20,002,000 on the USB. When I listen to the USB signal at 10 MHz (US time signal) there is lots of activity as the clock does different things in the WSPR cycle. Sometimes having a short "data burst" on the seconds count (maybe the update to the LCD?) and other times it is nearly quiet. Somewhat expeted with two oscillators and digital stuff happening just a few inches away...
Thanks for your hard work, Hans! For now, we will just reset the clock to fit. I am grateful for your products!

That's all very very strange. I wonder if there is something in the
firmware that is causing it! That will prompt me to do a new printout of
the current firmware and contemplate it during my train ride to/from work...
