But if they want to install a third party time sync program they are
better off installing W3HCF's definitive implementation of the NTP
protocol, rather than a program that was, I believe, really designed for
Windows 3.1/95.

Actually, there is a third option ... install a proper NTP service

Why do we always blame the radio first. In this day of digital stuff
with a computer involved, 90% of the time the problem is with the
computer or the settings in your application.
As previously posted the problem had nothing to do with CODEC or the K3S.
Problem turned out to be the time update of the computer by Dimension 4. I had
it set for updates every 1 sec as I didn’t think that was a problem. I now

Mike,
I had heard anecdotal stories about Xfinity modems and ethernet
connections to non-computer equipment. I actually had one customer who
had the problem, I took a spare Linksys router, and connected it between
the Xfinity modem, and the equipment, and that fixed the issue for my

Jim,
I use PTT with both my K2 and my KX3, its just one additional USB
connection to the PC. The other is to my external USB soundcard which
does audio for both.

You could always create something in Python, to have the computer read

I bet Mike would appreciate getting back to his issue, which has nothing to

Are you using a high end sound card/CODEC? If so it may just be that the
internal CODEC - while quite good - is not up to snuff for this
application.
I'd also try using different USB cables, though that doe

I also use that same serial connection to enable the logging program to
note the exact frequency in use at the time of the QSO, or to have the
computer be able to QSY on a mouse click.
It's not a complication, it's a convenience. In the case of FT8, the
serial connection is THE way to operate
