The internal clock in the K3 was just not good enough without resetting
regularly for even recording log times for CW QSOs on yes, believe it or not
paper.

PS I am not looking for FT8 clock accuracy though that would be nice.

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. 73, Dave AB7E On 10/18/2019 2:59 PM, Bill Weaver

Just curious. I'm a long time K3 owner and I never use the internal clock.
