After three or four battery-operated digital clocks that gained or lost one or two seconds a month (resetting them was always a pain in the butt), I plunked down $12 at Wal-Mart for an Oregon-Scientific "atomic" clock that is always exact whenever I check it against 10 MHz WWV. It displays GMT date and time (down to the second) and is the ideal clock for the ham shack.
It also works indoors in the ham shack, whereas my much more expensive hand-held GPS (which also displays accurate local time) does not (those microwaves don't go through anything opaque). 73, de Earl, K6SE _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
