I think it cost less than $20 - I don't recall. It is one of those great little accessories that I'm really glad I bought. -------------------- Yours has a thermometer?!? Guess I should upgrade my old RS travel clock I bought 8 or 9 years ago now. Problem is, the original AAA battery is still good, so I'll put it off for now. WWV updates it too. I tune in WWV on the shorwaves (Everyone remember how to do that with a K2? You press BAND+ and BAND- at the same time, then enter 1000.00 on the keypad on the right) and there's WWV telling me what time it is. I have to set my RS clock every month or two to keep it accurate to the minute. Bet Keith's has the same great feature for setting it. "Shortwaves" are fun and handy... Y'all check 'em out!
