Is NTP needed for PP

[sjacket99]

I’m trying to setup PP on my windows machine and wanted to know if NTP is really needed for PP? I tried to setup it up last night but was getting a lot of errors under the event window. Thanks for the help.

Why not ask on the PlanePlotter yahoo forum?

Yes, it is used to ensure signal timing accuracy as I understand it.

Yes you must run NTP to keep your timing accurate enough for the way PP does MLAT.
