Kevin,

I agree. I'd guess digital modes will not be embedded into the K3xs (I made that model up) until after the "touch screen" is added and external computer screen driver. But if you need an external screen then why not just use a computer with the K3, K3s, KX3 as its done now.

I use my computer time for logging and controlling WSJT modes. Its updated once/minute and keeps within about 10ms accurate using D4.

Maybe if I hauled the K3 out in portable locations the internal clock would matter. But then having a smart phone or GPS corrected laptop it still would not matter. I will be using my KX3 in my truck which has a digital clock and I also can use my I-phone...duh. My Timex keeps within a few seconds/year. I could wear that.

enough chatter on this OT.

Won't ever be a big deal. For JT65 and JT9 it's the computer clock that
matters.  My rigs RTC could be off by an hour and it won't effect the
timing of a JT65/JT9 QSO.It would matter if Elecraft decided to add
those modes to the radio for direct keying by the on board keyer (God I
hope not).
