My general thought on computer time accuracy......start decoding
stations. Watch the DT value of those decoded. I find if the majority
are less than <0.5 +/- then your computer clock is good. If most
stations decodes are greater than >0.5 +/-, then I'd look for a better
time reference. I'm not a MAC user so I can't comment on a source.

Richard,
I run a Mac here. Go to System Preferences, Unlock, enter “us.pool.ntp.org
<http://us.pool.ntp.org/>”, Lock and you will be good to go.
You should Unlock, delete, and renter the above daily to make sure you are
synched - takes 30 seconds.

Before I get into the list of problems I’m having using WSJT-X FT8 on my K3S,
I’d like to know:
1. Is the automatic clock setting in my Mac mini (running Sierra, 10.12) good
enough for modes like JT65 and FT8?
2. If not, what’s a good reliable time sync app I can download and use?
Cheers!
