As much as I liked Heathkit stuff, this looks like a 4.00 dollar clock
module in a 90.00 dollar box, and a 5.00 dollar power supply.

It isn't even WWVB, or GPS locked.  Sorry to be so negative about it,
but the new Heathkit is going to have to do very much better than a
99.00 dollar clock to stay in business over the next five years.

Construction would be fun, but really-- a $99.00 non lockable digital
clock?  

I fear for the new Heathkit...
