[Elecraft] KXBC3 clock drift

[Mark]

Re:  "You know a radio must be pretty good when the complaints start drifting off to how accurate (or not) it is as a timepiece ;-)"

That is why I have never complained about it, and I only offered my experience with it as a data point.  I do, however, need to run controlled tests and spend some time with the schematics to better understand if voltage is a factor, or if something else is causing the differences in time swing.

In any case, I have been extremely pleased with my KX3 for over 3 years and I haven't spent much time investigating this yet, so it obviously isn't high on my priority list.  I usually use my cell phone for time so the KX3 display remains free for other things ( VFO B, batt, current, PA temp, etc.).

You know a radio must be pretty good when the complaints start drifting off to how accurate (or not) it is as a timepiece ;-)
