I figure it'd just be easier to have a nearby computer synced with NTP, and then use a serial port or something to keep the clock running on time. But then, maybe the radio receiver would be easier to deal with.. I've got a cheap `atomic clock' that I got at Target, though it only manages to sync every few days, and the time drifts off by a second or three every day.. Of course, what do you expect from Target? -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ Always glad to share my / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ ignorance - I've got \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) plenty.
