Feature requests - R1BET - 03-20-2019

First of all, thank you for great application.
I have two suggestions:

1. Add a possibility to setting time difference in seconds manually. Like in TimeFudge.
It very simple but useful function if there aren't internet or gps available.
Something like:

2. Add of functionality of really outstanding app BktTimeSync Phone to the BktTimeSync.
There are two bonuses of it step:
a) One fully functional app that's conforms all possible needs of time sync for ham purposes.
b) Absence of Java Wink

Hi,
You can correct the time difference using the Offset field

I don't understand how I must use "Offset" option in that (real) situatuation:
I'm in the middle of nowhere without internet access and some serious troubles with my gps equipment was occured (it doesn't work at all).
What should I do (step for step) for manual time correction in BktTimeSync to make QSO at digitial modes (ft8,jt65) possible?

Use the Windows command:

Open the command prompt in Administrator mode
Type TIME Hours: minutes: seconds (example TIME 10:42:25) and Enter

You Can keep the command prompt open, press the F3 key and repeat the operation as many times as you want

Nice try, but no Wink

It's almost impossible to set time offset (not new time) especially in milliseconds in such way.
Look, I don't talk about workarounds. I can invent a lot of them. For example on PowerShell:

Code:
$TimeDiff = Read-Host 'Input time difference is second (s.s)?'

$SrcTime = Get-Date -Format 'yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss.fff'

$DstTime = Set-Date ((Get-Date).AddSeconds($TimeDiff)) | Get-Date -Format 'yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss.fff'

Write-Host ("Src-Time = "+$SrcTime) -Foreground Yellow

Write-Host ("Dst-Time = "+$DstTime) -Foreground Green

I only want to say that it would be nice to implement such (very very simple) functional in BktTimeSync.
