I'm running the evaluation copy on Windows 10 and the radio is Yaesu FT-891.
The GPS USB unit works well and YCAT populates my GRID information also LAT and LON automatically.

When I select the radial box "Sync GPS to PC" an error message is presented in the logs window:
" ... Failed GPS to PC Sync".

Looking for advice.

Eduardo,

? ?This is something I have been working with for some time.? ?Even used ChatGPT a couple days ago.? ?The net result is, for now, if you want the GPS to time sync the PC clock, you will need to run the application as Administrator.? ?Many people do not like to do this.? ?The solution will likely be to install a service with YCAT that runs in Admin mode to sync the clock when called by YCAT.

? ?Still working on this, but that is how to leverage the clock sync with GPS functionality.

Best regards,

OK sounds good. While I have internet (not in a field) I can still use the internet to keep the clock in-sync specially for digital modes.
Of course there are other tools that allow me to use the GPS dongle to sync the local clock but if YCAT can do it automatically would be cool!
I will test running it as administrator. Perhaps others might want to chime in about the service running. I vote yes.

This is something that many people may not like is to have an application run in Administrator mode.

Microsoft makes provisions to only run in Administrator mode for specific functions.? The YCAT program is developed in the latest Embarcadero C++ Builder.? ?There are no examples of this and implementing from Microsoft recommendations failed to yield correct results in Embarcadero IDE.

I was working with ChatGPT which offered many suggestions (about 5) each with compiler errors and ultimately no compiler errors with the same results, the Win11 operating system gave an error on SetSystemTime() function.? ?It's last suggestion with this information was to run the application in Adminstrator mode.? I replied this is unacceptable solution to which it agreed!? :)

Reminds me of that old song we learned as a child:? ?"There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza!..."? ?

I did create a new ticket for this, YCAT-0106 and will try to get this one in the next release.

Thanks again for your suggestions!
