[Elecraft] Operating FT8 portable with KX3 - GPS time sync question

[Barry N1EU]

Thanks Brian, I just downloaded the trial version of NMEATime.

And to reply indirectly to Don: I checked my laptop clock's accuracy (HP
EliteBook) and it was terrible.  I had it syncing every 3 mins and saw
corrections as high as 0.3 seconds.  Add in the temperature variability of
being outdoors 0-30C, means it needs an external reference.  The GPS
receiver is a viable solution.
