And for those that advocate for the simplicity factor using WWV, your ears, and
your mouse finger is about as simple as it gets. And it works!

It only happens to me occasionally and is easy to rectify but certainly

was likely a USB enumeration issue.

I will say I agree with the concerns expressed by Alan G0TLK about USB
enumeration. For that and other reasons I am hesitant to use additional
USB devices while engaging in portable operation or roving.
Mike W9MDB, thanks for making TimeFudge available I shall have to try that.

But why are you interested in working
Mike Black and created a small program/script that will allow you to
hand adjust your time. You can find it on his QRZ page:

I call it TimeFudge.

To clarify my use case and some reasoning:
1) Since WSJT is highly dependent on clock accuracy, there should be a way to
either manually or automatically sync the clock to received stations.2) I'm not
suggesting at all that WSJT modify the system clock
by minutes, hours, days,
etc, as long as the second hand lines up with received stations.

If it's a site near the car or maybe in a building etc, then yes the dongle
works well.
However if on foot while certainly not a major issue it's one more thing to
pack/carry, and to go wrong, plus of course it uses more of the scarce
battery power.
