Yeah, I understand that. If you're going to have a clock it might as
well be accurate. I just don't understand why anyone cares about the
clock to start with. At least not unless or until Elecraft enables some
embedded app in the K4 that needs it. I doubt anyone needs +/- a couple
seconds accuracy for anything that would involve manually transcribing
the time from the rig.
Agree about Windows. When I power on my Win10 laptop that I use for FT8
the damn thing is about 2.5 seconds off until Meinberg decides to step
in and fix things. Pretty sad.

The flip side of that is with ntp being around since the stone age and
the K4 having that feature implicitly, why not have it dead on? I have
to use a 3rd party program to keep windows close which is a joke in
the 21st century.

I've never understood the obsession with clocks and clock accuracy on
the K3/K3s/K4 series of rigs, yet it keeps popping up here from time to
time. I would think that 98+% of the operations with these rigs
involves the use of computer logging programs, almost all of which
boldly, conspicuously, and accurately display the time and autolog it.
I could see the need for it on a KX2 or KX3, but why is it such a big
deal on the base stations?
Just curious. I'm a long time K3 owner and I never use the internal clock.
