Re: Clock Accuracy and Outlook 2010 conversation deletion

[Bill K9YEQ]

In case anyone is interested.  I loaded Outlook 2010.  What a wonderful
piece of software.  I sort by conversations.  I went from multiple messages
under the Clock topic to just a couple conversations  and was able to
two-click them away to the deleted folder.

Agreed about the clock. It's hard to imagine any logging software that can't
do a time sync with a NIST server, unless you're in the boonies.
My wristwatch claims to sync with WWV nightly.
I'm not sure what leeway LoTW (or some contests) allows for matching but it
might be as tight as 30 seconds.

You can do the same with Outlook 2007, which I use, and maybe even Outlook
2003.

Back to clocks(!), I've used computer logging since the DOS DXbase in the
early 1990s and now DXLab and have an "Atomic Clock" synced to WWVB on the
wall.  My computer syncs with NIST every week or more often if I want to do
it manually.  For me the K3 clock is nice but I forget it's there.
