Good morning.
If you just want to kick the tires, there is also a web version at
https://openhamclock.com
No installation required.

Subject: [ADXA] Hamclock alternative...
Hello y’all,
I’m sure some of you know, or may have used, HamClock (a nice open-source alternative to Geochron). Unfortunately,
WB0OEW, who created it, has become
SK, and HamClock will stop running after
June 2026.
Well, as hams do, a new alternative is already here. OpenHamClock is now available on GitHub. I just downloaded it and installed it on the same Raspberry Pi I’ve been using for HamClock,
and all I can say is wow! A heck of a great turnaround by a few hams, for sure.
Here’s a good video about it:

And here are the installation steps from GitHub:

I’ll also say this — it looks fantastic on my dedicated 42-inch flat screen that I’ve been using for HamClock.
73,
