[Elecraft] Interesting tidbit...

[Dan Barker]

Impossible to say, without defining "it".

If "it" is: "timestamp is 6 monotonically ascending integers when displayed
backwards* modulo 100", it will happen next year at 02:03:04:05:06:07.

If "it" is: "timestamp is the first 6 integers in order when displayed
backwards* modulo 100", it will happen in 100 years, as Earl suggests.

If "it" is: "timestamp is the first 6 integers in order when displayed
modulo 100", it will happen in 2101 just after 5AM. (01:02:03:04:05:06).

* Backwards, LSD to MSD: ssmmhhDDMMYY. Normal timestamp display is
YYYYMMDDhhmmss.

Back on topic (sort of):

How do you get an MFJ clock to display UTC? Half the year, I have to turn
off DST every single day before reading the clock. Kinda stupid for an
Amateur Radio product. Model MFJ-123.

The time and date will be: 01:02:03:04:05:06

This won't happen again for a thousand years.

My calculations say it will happen every 100 years.
