[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 864301, member: 176256"] Probably... There's obviously transmission delay for the GPS but that will be much less than for satellite TV as the satellites are much closer to the earth. And maybe they build in some compensation somehow. The clock uses a (very) long wave transmission so will be the most accurate I would think. Regarding the laptop clock, again there will be some delay but as the time signals are sent out regardless of who receives them it will be miniscule. Again, maybe there's some compensation. [/QUOTE]
