All Clocks

This radio controlled clock is a replacement for a similar older clock produced by the same manufacturer. The old clock was 8 - 10 years old and worked well except that it was produced well before the change in the daylight saving time start / end dates and it continued switch to or from DST on the old dates. Because of this, I read the literature and reviews carefully before ordering the new one. I read that the new La Cross radio controled clocks now change to and from DST based on a bit in the radio signal, so they should continue work properly even if the DST dates change again. In reading the reviews, I saw that one of the most frequent negative comments was the clock would fail to set automatically. I agree that that is frustrating. The WWV radio tranasmitter is located in Colorado. Here in Virginia, the signal is weak. Fortunately for me, the clock sets itself reliably over night in the location where I have hung it. I am sure it would not set itself if I had it in my basement. I have a radio controlled desk clock (different manufacturer) that I use at work. It will not set itself overnight in my office building even I set it in a window. I have to leave it in my car overnight every week or so for it to set itself. I really like having a precise clock that is battery powered so it is not affected by power failures. Will one of these clocks work you? Probably the only way to know for sure is to get one and try it out. One criticism I have is that if you have to set the time manually, it is difficult to set the clock precisly (+/- several seconds). The instructions say to start with a fresh AA battery. I agree. I started by inserting the battery from the old clock in the new one. The clock seemed to run ok, but would not set itself. New AA batteries are generally 1.6 volts and it turned out that the old one I was trying to use was down to 1.25 volts."..."  Read more

A very compact travel alarm clock and since it uses atomic clock time it's very accurate. The clock is very easy to set and the alarm is sufficiently loud. It also uses a AAA battery which I appreciate from a cost and battery life standpoint. My previous travel alarm clock (a different brand), was also automatically set by the atomic clock but used expensive batteries that only had a 6 month life. That clock had a very weak alarm sound. The only feature missing from this clock that I would have liked is a seconds readout. Because of the clocks accuracy I use it to set other clocks around the house and find a seconds readout to be very helpful. Even without the seconds feature I would certainly recommend this La Crosse clock to anyone who is looking for a compact, accurate travel alarm clock."..."  Read more

This clock was actually ordered to replace the exact same clock, because over eager power washers had destroyed the out door temperature sender. To our pleasant surprise both clocks now work fine with the one sender from the new clock, so we now have a handsome new clock in the bedroom. These clocks are great for old eyes, because the numbers are large enough to be seen across the room."..."  Read more

That's an old radio cliche from the golden age of radio; i.e.,"the old clock on the wall says it's time for.....etc...etc..." I am still producing radio spots, but all my work is done from my home studio. But accurate time is still as important as ever in radio production. This wall clock closely resembles the ones in the major radio stations; it's large easy to read...and absolutely accurate! Another plus. and a very important one for a clock in a small production studio with extremely sensitive microphones nearby, the 14" CLassic Clock is QUIET! -Lee"..."  Read more
