I suppose the time signal includes DST info and these clocks do not use it, while the Casio does? Or is the Casio a new model that may have the right DST programming? Didier KO4BB The clocks and the watch were all purchased within the last four months. Of course, I don't know how long they

I have had mine for a while and all I could say is, it was nice while it lasted :-) Well, on the positive side, you may be off by an hour, but the seconds will be right :-) I plan to take tomorrow off anyhow, that will give me another day to adjust my own body clock (with is not disciplined

To address some of the recent DST postings... Clocks with hard-coded USA DST rules will be off by an hour for the three weeks from 11-Mar to 1-Apr-2007. Given how long it's been since the DST rules changed you can see why someone in a cheap or weak moment would design a clock with hardcoded

I do not know if my clocks (WWVB controlled types) are one of these hard coded one, or a smart one, but I will say the one feature that made me choose it over others was the low price (for a WWVB controlled model). Let's be honest, it was cheap. However, if it happens to have simply missed

Tom, I was under the same impression as you, regarding RC clocks. However, I just pulled/replace the battery on one of mine and then forced an update. It still is an hour off. Am I missing something, or is the clock? What make/model? This is interesting. I have seen something like this

What make/model? This is interesting. I have seen something like this before. It might work tomorrow. It might take one 2 AM transition. Or it might work in another hour when 11-Mar-2007 UTC is over. Can you try it again a few times and tell me when it first comes up with the correct time?
