The reason that the AMB time differs from your Mychron, Alfarno etc is that the dash loggers pic up their info from magnetic strips, however your kart transponder sends out a signal that is detected by a wire loop in the track and then fed to a decoder. the wire loop and magnetic strip are never placed absolutely together in the track and differ sometimes by several meters.
Given the change in exact location and the different method of receiving the signal small discrepancies are inevitable.
