First of all, great project and i am using the program and also the android app for a few weeks.. and it saves me a lot of trouble when i am working protable as i do currently.

I found a few small issues that could be improved i hope:
When working with the external gps enabled and then disconnect the gps, and the windows application is minmalised you are not able to open the app to switch off the comport to the gps, and the only way is kill the proces and restart and then disable. 
Suggestion: polling and when comport is dead or not responding open the screen and or switch off or shutdown with notice why.

I also had a strange problem with the bluetooth connection. There was a connection between the phone and the notebook over bluetooth, but there was no traffic so no gps coordinate came at the windows site. The main solution was not restarting the app on the phone but reboot the pc.. no reason why .... 

When porable i will sometimes forget to push the ww button, ans also when i restart wsjtx.  Is it an idea if the transport to wsjtx it activated, to make it a polling meganism, ad or pushing meganism, that when wsjtx is active every xx minutes the location grid is send? or make a semafore pointer when wsjtx received the gridlocator, poll every minute if wsjtx procces is active and when not take away the semafore and when wsjtx procces is there again send the grid locator ... when it is there...

thanks for the nice programs!

Possibilità di leggere passando il mouse sull'icona nella trash non tanto o non solo la differenza dell'ultima sincronizzazione ma anche o solo la correzione impostata.
Ed anche sarebbe + comodo avere il tasto a destra che riduce ad icona e a sinistra "esci" dato che di solito non si esce.

Ottimo lavoro!

Buongiorno,
con la versione 1.20.3 non mi tiene in memoria la configurazione sempre in piano piano dell'orologio, cosa posso fare?
Grazie

Suddenly since yesterday BktTimeSync corrects my clock by half of what is indicated in the appropriate box. As far as I remember I have not changed any setting, but if I indicate to correct by one second the correction is 0.5 seconds, both in the log window and with the shift towards the corresponding FT8.

What could I have tampered with?

When I select e.g. English then the BktTimeSync switches to German. I have tried a few languages before it switched to English.

How do I determine if I have the correct server port and IP address?  thanx.. Fred

Hi Mauro,

I've been using BktTimeSync for quite some time.  Current working version is v1.15.0.  I installed v1.20.0 and the GPS sync did not work and gave a "GPS time invalid".  I then tried the latest v1.20.1 and still got "GPS time not valid".  I tried uninstalling v1.15.0 and installing v1.20.1 but get the same issue.  Disconnecting the GPS and re-connecting did not resolve the issue.

Any thoughts ??

PS: Running Windows 10Pro 

Thanks,
