Jason,

I keep a regular 12 hour clock in the shack to tell what time it is.  An 
analog clock is terrible for ham use like logging.  It just leads to 
confusion.  It is much easier to just write down the numbers.  Unless you 
have some use that I don't understand, I would go digital.  My opinion is 
bases on a lot of experience.   In my beginning, 59 years 10 months ago, 
analog is all we could get in a clock.  I was never so happy to get rid of 
that and go digital.

73,   Jim

Yes, it's for the shack.  I can find digital atomic clocks that will do UTC,
but I can't find one with hands.

Jason,

I assume this is not for ham radio!  Analog clocks are useful, IMHO.

I'm looking for an analog wall clock (with hands) that will sync with the
WWV and has UTC as a timezone option.  I've been looking on and off for
months.  I can find 2 of the 3 features I need, but I can't find all 3.



Has ANYONE seen one of these?  Have one?  Know someone whose brother's best
friend's uncle's neighbor has one?
