Joe,
If its a hardware fault it can usually be repaired but if its software
then that could be a show stopper. If you have the required test
equipment and some expertise then trace the signal from the antenna (
usually a cross field) through the crystal filter to the processor.
I would thing that the best way would be tp open up the clcok and find
the movement type and manufacturer and get a new one from somewhere like
Timesavers - I assume that you are in the US.
Good luck
Peter

A friend of mine has an old round brass Schatz Ships clock (looks
like a Royal Mariner clock, but is not) with a radio-clock quartz
mechanism. This clock is quite dead, but one would think it can be
repaired. When I google on this clock, I don't find repair details
and schematics, I see only offers to sell me a new clock, or nw clock
innards. If the problem is electronic, I'll probably be the one
doing the repairs.
So, my question is if these old clocks can in fact be repaired, or is
the only option to polish the brass and wood, but replace the innards?
Thanks,
Joe Gwinn
