I was using dimension 4 for a log time on my Win 7 machine until it quit. Works fine on my WIN 10 laptop though. So i downloaded and ran BKtTimeSynch and it does just as good a job. Larry W0OGH On 3/21/2023 12:49 PM, Bob Garceau wrote:

Meinberg.
Free and it creates a true NTP daem on on the PC. It runs a drift file line a Linux or UNIX system does so it can anticipate clock drift and you get better timing accuracy than your clock chip alone can provide. Step-tick on startup too. Set it and forget it, it just works. https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm Rick Kunath, K9AO |

The link that you need is https://download.cnet.com/Dimension-4/3000-2094_4-10039998.htm. Link http://www.thinkman.com/dimension4/index.htm is not responding at this time. Been running Dimension4 for over 4 years without any problems, running Windows 10 Pro. Doug WB4JPG ----- Original Message -----

I have used Dem4 and migrated to Meinberg. to https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/

They both work but in a little different way. With Dimension 4 it re-syncs by a schedule you can select. Meinberg provides continuous incremental adjustments to your clock a little at a time. I had set Dem4 to update every 5 minutes as I recall. Sometimes I would miss decodes when it would update. I changed to 30 minutes so it was less noticeable but still occurred in the middle of a decode. Changing to Meinberg resolved that issue for me. That has been quite a while ago so may not have the same impact with current decoders. Not sure what others experience are. 73 Bill W9JJB On Mar 21, 2023, at 3:47 PM, Doug Bates - WB4JPG <wdbates@...> wrote: |

NTP really is the gold standard, available on just about any platform, and pretty much trivial to configure.

(Yes, I know that some have had issues with Meinberg NTP on Whin*, but on review, that almost always seems to be failure to read the docs and configure correctly). No jumps, complies with a standard, and just works. And you can run a GPS with ntp, but best not USB - the delays/jitter in the USB connection really make that a mediocre solution at best, but better than nothing. Best is a serial attached GPS with a PPS input . . . If you want to go there . . . :-) - Tim, N8EAU On 3/21/23 18:51, Steve - K6MNO wrote:

Meinberg NTP is better.

Just need to remember to click the pulldown box in the dialog after the installation to select your time zone. https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm Mike W9MDB On Tuesday, March 21, 2023 at 02:49:23 PM CDT, Bob Garceau <rgarceau@...> wrote:

In the WSJT-X User Guide, Chapter 3 you will find a link to a tested and known to work time sync program for Windows.
