I use a Radio Shack 63-959 travel clock.About $14.95. It can be set for 12 or 24
hour time, shows temp, date and day of the week and can be set for alarm. Hard
shell case flips down to make a base. Runs on one AAA battery. Nothing fancy,
but it works. Just set it for UTC.

I'm looking to buy one online, since there don't seem to be any purveyors in
my area. I'd like to hear some recommendations for brands. I've found
several styles, but I'm hoping to find one that's easiest to read quickly.
(Some look like they'll take a couple of seconds of deciphering.) I'm
thinking of going digital for that reason, but I have to admit I kind of
like the way the analog clocks look in the shack photos that I've been
seeing lately. Does anyone out there prefer a particular brand or face-style
over any other? Or is this just a case of "I'll get used to it over time"?
That's what I suspect, but what with all of the years of experience in here,
I'd be a fool not to avail myself of some of it.
