The computer can use a set of NTP servers from the "pool" to get time. The result is good enough that the seed of sound delay resulting from your random distance to the bell will be the largest source of error.
If you convert timing errors to distance at the speed of sound. You would need the GPS only if you car about bell to ear distances of about one foot, give or take So for this use case the OP does not need a GPS or even a SMTPE connection just a WiFi link to the internet would be more than enough for controlling a horn blast from a light house -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
