However, I get occasional messages that the USB connection is lost, and I have to close bkttimesync and reopen it to restore the connection. I have power settings set to keep the USB alive, and thought that would cure the problem.
Anything else I should try, or is it something with the program?
I'm using Win 7 64bit Home Premium. Hardware is 2013 MacMini with 16Gb and native Windows boot. The GPS is a ublox 5 from Microsoft Streets and Trips. I can usually see 8 or more sats with this device...

Hi,
USB connections can be disrupted by radio frequency falls, try to verify if the disconnection occurs when you're in TX.
BktTimeSync activates the connection with the GPS only for the time needed for synchronization, then closes it.
