FDnet 1.7

Eddie Wallace #41 Our group ran into a simular problem during FD 2002. The five computers were not using a common referance for log timing. When planning started for our FD 2003 event, we knew that having 10 computers would only make the problem worse. I did some looking on the net and found server/client software that uses a single GPS unit to sync all the computers in a workgroup to the same time (give or take a billionth of a second). The software worked great. ClockWatch Star Sync and the client are shareware, and can be downloaded at Maybe we could talk Scott into a time keeper upgrade to the contest network software??? 73, Eddie KG4EFR
Scott Davis All Messages By This Member #42 Hi Eddie, Thanks for the great information. Yes, I definitely plan to include a time synchronization function in next year's version. 73, Scott, N3FJP snkdavis@...
