- The built-in Windows facility for time synchronization is usually
not adequate. We recommend the program _Meinberg NTP_ (see {ntpsetup}
for downloading and installation instructions) or _Dimension 4_ from
{dimension4}. Recent versions of Windows 10 are now shipped with a
more capable Internet time synchronization service that is suitable if
configured appropriately.

- _WSJT-X_ expects your sound card to do its raw sampling at 48000 Hz.
To ensure that this will be so when running under recent versions of
Windows, open the system's *Sound* control panel and select in turn
the *Recording* and *Playback* tabs. Click on *Properties*, then
*Advanced*, and select *16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)*. Switch of all

_OpenSSL_ libraries to be installed. Suitable libraries may already
be installed on your system, if they are not you will see this error
shortly after startup. To fix this you need to install the _OpenSSL_
libraries.
** You can download a suitable _OpenSSL_ package for from
{win_openssl_packages}, you need the latest *Win32 v1.0.2 Lite*
version (Note it is the Win32 package even if you are using a
64-bit Windows operating system) which at the time of writing was
{win32_openssl}.
** Install the package and accept the default options, including the
option to copy the OpenSSL DLLs to the Windows system directory
(this is important). +
NOTE: If you still get the same network error after installing the
_OpenSSL_ libraries then you also need to install the
{msvcpp_redist} component. From the download page select
`vcredist_x86.exe` and run it to install.
