Marco,

yes, it would!

if your clock is drifting clockspeed is "the" way to fix that!

having an external source is a handy way to figure the exact "adjust" to
feed to clockspeed;

if you don't have an external source *and* your clock is drifting
abnormally, you could figure a "reasonable" adjust using (for instance)
your wirstwach (done that with "reasonable" results!);

plese note that the above procedure only makes sense if your clock is
drifting *abnormally* like 10s per day!

[]s,
