Well, yes, but you have to set it up properly. Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools and open Task Scheduler. Scroll down to the bottom panel and you'll see a list of tasks. Double-click on Synchronize Time. This will bring up a new set of panels. Click on the Triggers tab. You'll see something like "Daily" or "Weekly," which is the schedule on which your clock is now synced. Highlight it, then click Properties at the right of the page. Another window will appear, also with a Triggers tab. Click on this tab and you'll find an Edit button. Edit the trigger so that your clock sync repeats indefinitely, every hour. Some PCs have a stable clock, others do not. My desktop can stay synced for several days within a second, but my laptop has to be re-synced every hour. If you don't do this, you may find your clock is wildly erroneous even though you think it's synced. 73, Tony KT0NY ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
