I also use tick.nobs.navy.mil for several years (2003) with my xp32
machine using D4 (mainly for JT65 on eme).
I have a frequent sync rate so time is rarely off more than 0.020s.
Dimension-4 is freeware and easy to setup.
I tried some other NIST programs in the past returned to using
D4. Its my belief that it is used by very many eme'rs so not sure
where the comment by GIMHU came from that represented "most eme'rs
having switched away from D4". I was never asked in any survey about
what I am using.

Myself, I use tick.nobs.navy.mil with no problems at all. It's at the
US Naval Observatory and is one of the group used to determine NIST
time. My first engineering job was at the US Naval Research Laboratory
so I have a (misplaced ?) loyalty to NObs ! :)
Happy Hamming.
