I think you may be talking past each other. If the text "ClockSource" 
appears in /proc/zaptel/[1-8] that span is used as the current clock 
source. From what Marc has said it is the clock sorce for all spans on the 
same card.

There is a field "timing" in /etc/zaptel.conf that ranks incoming spans in 
the order they are to be considered as a clock source. If all active spans 
(presumably on a single card) have their timing set to 0 the card and thus 
all the spans will be clocked from an internal source.

Now, given what has been written on the bug tracker and here I suspect 
there is a bug in ztcfg. It should set up the clocking independently on 
the two cards. Perhaps it doesn't?
