[Elecraft] OT setting your computer to NIST

[Rick Commo]

Gary,

Is there any chance that perhaps your firewall might be blocking the traffic on that NTP port?  

This thought was triggered by the fact that all your computers were having problems.  From what I’ve found on Google doing a quick search that NTP can use port 123 (IMCP, which is also used by pPing), port 37 (but seems to be disfavored) and port 13.  See: http://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi

Cheers and hope you find the problem,
-rick, K7LOG

Gentlemen,

I have today tried each and every one of your suggestions for a 
"correct" server to sync and ever one of them has failed for me. 

While I am truly happy these options work for you, they do not work 
for this computer or any of the other computers I use.

The 3rd party software, however, does work without a hiccup on this 
computer. 

My only interest in my original posting of this was to provide 
information to any of us who have difficulties in syncing their 
computer to the correct time, so they will know a viable option to 
deal with this problem.

I suspect this has been beaten to death and Eric will be soon telling 
us to can it, so lets let it go at this point. 

73,
