[time-nuts] Spectracom 8170 Time of Day grief...

[J. L. Trantham]

Burt,

I saw that earlier.

I am hoping to find a wall clock.

I wonder what it is about the SkyScan clock that makes them fail.  I doubt
they phase lock the signal but they might.  I think all the data is AM
modulated, IIRC.

Thanks.

Joe

Joe,

All of the SkyScan clocks I know of have failed.  I have two of them that no
longer work.  However, I have two made by Junghan's that seem to be fine.
Take a look at www.junghansUSA.com
