Thanks; I used to use one of those with Freetime, but it seemed to 
have stopped working. I've just tried them both again with Freetime, 
and I get nothing but a timeout. Some time ago, someone suggested 
ntp.demon.co.uk which I have been using since, and which now seem to 
work with NetTime too (I'm not sure how you know this is working, 
apart from intermittently checking with Freetime!).

Thanks, I've downloaded that, and it makes interesting reading.

With best wishes,

Peter.
