I never use the on-board clock though I occasionally reset it via the K3
utility.
Perhaps someone could write a little clock set utility that would reset it off
the PC once a day

I agree with you, Don re no real use for a clock
in a radio.
OTOH, if there is one -- and there is one in the
K3 -- I'd like it to be at least as accurate as
the $15 watch I have on my wrist :-)
I do wonder why there is one at all.

Phil,
I guess I am one of those don't care types much
of the time :-) .
I have a watch on my wrist - it is used when I
want to know what time it is.
I for one have no use for a clock in a radio.
If I am logging when portable, my watch tells me
all I need to know and does not take up display
space on the radio.
Usually I don't care what time it is unless I
have an appointment - my stomach tells me when
it is time to eat. I am retired, and the work
that I do is on my own schedule.
I usually know where I am, but if not, I try
first to consult with a map - can't stand those
GPS units that tell you what to do and where to
turn - give me a map where I can see my "to" and
"from" and I can navigate just fine, thank you.

Not so much "People who don't know" as "People
who don't care to know ".
The reductio-ad-absurdum" is of course the
stopped clock which is
accurate twice a day.
As operators of precision electric equipment
that spews signals into
"the ether" (to use an outdated term :) ) I
feel that we have an
obligation to know stuff like that.
