It takes half a day before the first host appears as orphan ("O" in the output of "chronyc selectdata"), and I have not managed to have all three hosts appear as orphans and agree on one of them as server. Usually, I end up with a cyclic constellation.

It's supposed to end up in a stable state using only one source, but
it might take a long time. You can speed it up by increasing
maxclockerror and reducing the orphan distance.

If that doesn't work for you, please post output from chronyc sources
and selectdata.
