for some reason it's not doing relative positioning with respect to the
base station.  try enabling debug information in one of the tabs in
rtkpost, then check the output files for warnings.

rtklib does one base station at a time.
you can try different bases in different runs.

other software are capable of merging the results
from multiple baselines as a weighted average.

do you mean a shift or offset in coordinates?
well, as you said, your "base is not installed on a known point."
you should find a similar 5-m difference
processing your base with respect to the
permanent base station -- do it in static mode.

In my rinex observable file from the rover , I had 1 and 1 for WAVELENGTH

please ignore those records, that's just weirdness of some receivers.
see rinex file format specification if you're curious.

not sure what's the 0.3 sec you mention.
is the 10 cm a sporadic spike or intermittent scatter?
try sending a figure/plot.

And the change of ionosphere correction to Iono-Free LC didn't successed to

how far is the permanent base?
if it's less than 10 km, don't use I-F.

20 min might be enough to converge
with a dual-frequency receiver...
