Uh, really? The /alarm/ will go off even if power has not been restored?

I've got three (or four) alarm clocks which have 9v battery backups that are
somewhat close in keeping time but not a one of 'em will work (sound alarm or
play radio) until the power comes back on. [Which is why we have two of the
little 2" analog clocks with very evil alarm and they each run off of one
"AA" cell.


Yes, it beeps. Even if you have it set to radio.
