[GCARC] Frugal Geochron Substitute (HamClock)

I am using Pi Version 4 2mb.  I chose to leave it as a desktop app instead
of booting up with the application when I turn on the Raspberry Pi.

To install HamClock on a Raspberry Pi follow these steps:
These instructions assume your RPi is up and running Bullseye. If not, first
see the FAQ about being new to the Pi then come back here.
Open a terminal on the target system GUI desktop by clicking on the red
Raspberry → Accessories → Terminal. This will give you a command line
prompt for the next step.
Download the installer script by running the following commands (use
copy/paste to avoid typos):

Cd

curl -O http://www.clearskyinstitute.com/ham/HamClock/install-hc-rpi

chmod u+x install-hc-rpi

Now run the script by typing the following command. Answer each question by
typing y or n followed by Enter:
./install-hc-rpi

If something goes wrong, look through the detailed instructions in the next
section. But if all goes well that's it! Be sure to read the User Guide to
get the most from HamClock.
If you chose not to install a desktop icon, you can run HamClock from the
terminal at any time by typing this command:
hamclock &

Nice! Looks great on your QRZ page!
