I use it to make sure I've got the right UTC <--> local time
offset. My iPhone also knows UTC. Oh, and RUMlog also knows UTC.
I probably don't use it more than two or three times a year.
I set it to my computer's time every time I run the K3 utility,
which is at least every time I hear on this list of a new
version of the firmware. It is usually off by 20 seconds or so,
which is plenty accurate enough to check the UTC offset. :-)
On the other hand, my computer uses network time protocol and
has been spot on every time I've listened to WWV.

A corollary question: who actually uses the K3 clock?
