Yes, mine have shown similar errors from time to time. Usually a new
battery fixes the problem. I have had it happen on AC powered clocks. The usually
go back to proper time after I press the WAVE button. I figure they must
get some interference from something that causes them to go off time. Overall,
they work very well and seldom go off time. Going from PST to DST and back
can be problematic for my clocks. I think I have 10 of them around the house
and I usually have to put in a new battery or restart 3 or 4 of them at
PST/PDT time change. I am located in the Los Angeles area so the WWVB signal is
OK here but not as strong as for a lot of the country.
