At least not unless or until Elecraft enables some embedded app in the K4 that needs it. I doubt anyone needs +/- a couple seconds accuracy for anything that would involve manually transcribing the time from the rig. Agree about Windows. When I power on my Win10 laptop that I use for FT8 the damn thing is about 2.5 seconds off until Meinberg decides to step in and fix things. Pretty sad. 73, Dave AB7E On 10/18/2019 2:59 PM, Bill Weaver wrote:  >  The flip side of that is with ntp being around since the stone age and  >  the K4 having that feature implicitly, why not have it dead on?
