I think you asked the wrong question, so you got the question to the answer you asked and not what you wanted to know. You asked whether Lady Heather can set PC time, the answer is yes but it is a crude way to set the time. What you really wanted to know is how to get time from a GPS receiver into the PC, and the answer to that is that gpsd has a driver that can communicate with a Thunderbolt (Palisade driver), and gpsd also knows how to communicate with a Thunderbolt. So use ntp directly to communicate with the Thunderbolt. Lady Heather is an awesome program for doing lots of things with a Thunderbolt, but disciplining the system clock to follow the GPS receiver is not really one of those things. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
