There's a nice Windows app to do that sync to < 1 sec.Gary, K5AMH On May 8, 2020 10:34:08 AM Jimmy Vance via BVARC <[email protected]> wrote: You want you time as close to correct as possible. As long as the decodes are 1 second or less you should not have an issue with making the contact Once you get past -18 or so it's a crapshoot on if they hear you or not On 5/7/2020 8:14 PM, Martin Blaise via BVARC wrote: Question when using ft8 and ft4 and you go to time.is and it does NOT say your time is exact, how much does that hurt your chances of not completing a contact? Say you are off by 0.2 seconds. Is that close enough? I have a very old desktop running windows 10. Run wsjt-x 2.1.2. Isn’t it more about the dB level? I’ve had reports of 00 and reports of -22. Just trying to figure out if synch is critical. On Thu, May 7, 2020 at 7:34 PM Robert Polinski via BVARC <[email protected]> wrote: I have a Dell laptop, the CMOS battery went dead. It was under the hard drive, easy to replace, but you have to use one that fits the computer. On desktops most can be replaced with no tools once you get to the motherboard, but some are soldered in place and may require more effort to change.

The first sign that the battery needs to be replaced is the loss of accuracy of your computer's clock. On desktop computers, it is a button battery on the motherboard anf is easily replaced.

I have tried downloading Meinberg and Net Time and other softwares but none of them works. Is there anyone out there who has team viewer or something similiar who could see what I have set up wrong? I have tried many times to troubleshoot this and still can't get it to synch. Dimension 4 doesn't work either. I need help to find out where I messed up the computer.
