My ATS 803a, having been turned on 24/7 since
1975, finally stopped working. I suppose I could try factory reset and stuff but what the hell. Just thought I should mark the occasion. Pretty good reliability. The wall wart, clock and light still work but it won't turn on. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |

The ATS 803a has only been since 1989, this an early prototype model
available in 1975? "Ron Hardin" wrote in message ... My ATS 803a, having been turned on 24/7 since 1975, finally stopped working. I suppose I could try factory reset and stuff but what the hell.

If you tape the light button down, you'll still be able to read the clock 24/7, |

Well, at least the wall wart is re-usable and not half-ass backwards like a

Maybe it was later. Anyway on 24/7 for decades. The big topic at the time was the anti-chuff mod, which I quickly applied. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |
