We had those clocks in the Diplomatic Telecommunications stations around the world. Very accurate and never remember having to reset one, except when came in on night shift and some dodo had reset it for Daylight Idiot time. They were always on GMT (ZULU time). Thankfully they hadn't set the world wide computer time. Can you imagine the confusion work wide if that had happened?Sent from my Galaxy

While the old mechanical time keepers are much more desirable, the quartz ones are at least accessible and affordable, (and keep time more accurately). I've had one in my shack for many years. It loses about five seconds a year.https://www.chelseaclock.com/radio-room-clock-8-5-dial73,Craig, W3CRR-- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG.https://www.avg.com______________________________________________________________CW mailing listHome: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/cwHelp: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htmPost: mailto:CW at mailman.qth.netCW List ARCHIVES: http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/cw/Unsubcribe send email tocw-unsubscribe at mailman.qth.netSubscribe send email to cw-subscribe at mailman.qth.netSupport this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html=30=
