Well, capping the PPM-to-khz value may not work anyway as outlined in the
other email about missing 'drift'. We may just leave that PPM value as is,
or reduce it upfront by a certain amount. Since right now the real drift
is not considered, the plain 500PPM may work or not in the worst case.

I will think about if and how drift should be part of the picture.
