DST can be a pain for any clock!  Among the many clocks I've built or bought, the MOD-SIX clock seems to have the most complete DST tables for fully unattended time changes.   The manual one-button DST on clocks from PV Electronics are probably the most future proof AND are convenient to u

John, It truly is about as basic of a clock as you can get. Yes, it's almost impossible to set the seconds accurately. I'm sure it's why Jeff came out with his NixiSat/NixiChron/GPSII series of clocks which were a big improvement in features and functionality. I like it mostly because it w
