With accurate time references freely available in the ether (WWV, GPS, TV and CDMA), no clock in existance should have to be set manually, ever. Yet, even in this day and age, car clocks, VCRs, DVRs and stereos blink 12:00. And with virtually all PCs connected at least part-time to the Internet, it's unacceptable that many of them display the time of by many minutes, if not even the wrong century.
Now, there are many fine time servers available for networks. However, I wonder if with the increasing popularity of the NTP pool if some home units wold make sense. For instance, there are many wall clocks synchronized by WWV. If they had a WiFi interface, they could be a poorman's S1 NTP server (hello, La Crosse?). At least some NTP pool aficionados would consider getting one, yes? ;-) _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
