   There are many time-of-day applications available.  I use SmartClock v1.3, available at http://home.worldonline.cz/~cz057881/en/.

   I use the following settings:
-- General parameters:
   .. display seconds
   .. always on top
   .. restart on Windows startup
   .. right alignment
   .. do not hide
   .. do not use "true transparency"
-- Digital parameters
   .. Verdana font, 8 pt
   .. text in yellow
   .. no outline (control to the left)
   .. no shadow

   Then I position the digital clock in the blue bar at the top of the QSO Entry form, right where I can see it ticking away during
the contest.

   The only drawback with this fine utility is that one must switch the computer to GMT during the contest; SmartClock always shows
the time zone that the computer is set to at the moment.
