To use this feature with BktTimeSync, you must meet the following requirements:
- Have Microsoft Net Framework 4.8 or a later version installed (which is already included by default in Windows 11).
- Activate GPS synchronization and wait for the WW Locator grid value to be displayed.
- The WW Locator is sent to WSJT-X only when BktTimeSync synchronizes the time using GPS or by pressing the [Send WW Locator] button.
- Sending the WW Locator may fail if there are other software programs that are also using the connection to WSJT-X. If there is an error, BktTimeSync will automatically retry for one minute.
