Greetings: MSWindows is too complicated.. Has anyone suggested
booting the machine with any live version of Linux that has the 'net
date' program and setting the machines clock with that?? That's what we
do here: 'net date time-a.nist.gov' then 'hwclock -w' to write it to the
BIOS..

Or listen to 10MHz USB.

I still think it's firewall though.

The bands don't seem to be dead from north central U.S. I have used WWV 
since I was around 12 years old and still do, almost on a daily basis.

Right now I can just barely hear WWV on 20 MHz, but 15 is S9 +10 dB, 10 
MHz is S9 + 30 dB, and 5 MHz is S9 + 10 dB. I consider those signals to 
be quite good. It is farther to your location than mine, and maybe 
higher atmospheric noise? But the bands are certainly open to at least 
20 meters.

At night the frequencies go long so the lower bands should do just fine.

Some upper HF frequencies will improve if sunspots come back again and 
we are not entering a Maunder Minimum.

 Thanks Ken, 

 I used your suggestion. I never hear WWV very often because the bands are so 
 dead.

You need the system time (SE_SYSTEMTIME_NAME) privilege enabled for your

 Thanks for the suggestions. Yeah I've downloaded half a dozen softwares 
 that claim to access servers to update my computer clock. None work 
 because there is something in Windows configuration that blocks this 
 process. About three computers back I had the same problem. Trouble is I 
 can't remember what the solution is.

It looks like your firewall or router is block the time service port.
That is the ntp service on port 123.

  Hello Kim,
  
  You can try:
  * the Internet time with Clock.exe (in the Multipsk package),
  * AboutTime.exe soft.
  
  Of course you can get time from Radio-clock transmitters 
 (with Clock), 
  but
  the most simple is to get time from Internet.

Check your firewall(s) ?

 NTP uses ( I think ) port 123
