Please consider implementing the rdate time protocol on port 37 (tcp &/or udp).
Although NTP is better, rdate is "just good enough" in many situations. Due to its simplicity, it's perfect for most IoT and micro-devices. And being a standard, many legacy devices will support rdate over NTP.
It could also be helpful for folks needing a "just good enough" $20 device with a $12 GPS, $4 ESP32 or ESP-8266 & $4 RTC PCF8523.
very cool. cheers.

Sorry, for some reason I didn't see your message before. I will work on it, looks really simple.
Would you be able to test once it is done and tell me the results?
Thank you!
