Internet time sync - NOT amateur radio

For 10m WSPR, I usually sync time using my atomic clock in the shack. For 8m FT8 and WSPR, I usually sync to internet time using the built-in sync with Windows 10. For some reason (too busy?) this sync was not happening earlier. I shall try again later. As far as I can tell my PC clock error is just a few seconds at most, so I hope this is OK for now.

Did notice you were about a second out again yesterday, Roger. My windows 10 allows syncing either with Microsoft or another US source
(forget the name,NST or similar) which I tend to use more as at times MS doesn't work!

Hi Roger
For Windows 10 I have been using Time-Sync (speed-soft.de) for many years, without any issues.
To check your PC clock time offset use Time.is
I hope that helps.
