Is it possible that they measured the distance not height to the reference clock? It takes time for the signal to travel to the reference clock. But I’m not sure about the exact geometry.

I would guess that one would send a clock signal (think of it as a square wave at a very precise frequency) and measure the phase shift between the two clocks. (also very precisely)

Latency would be constant, time dilation would continually drift.
