Hi all. I hope someone can help me.

I'm looking for an inexpensive dual time zone clock to keep next to my
radios and can't seem to find a good one anywhere.

Could be a wall hanging analog gig or a desktop digital. I have no real
preference other than I need something that'll keep time in UTC and in my
time zone. An atomic, radio controlled number would be nice, but not
necessary. Anyone have suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Keith.

Plug "UTC" into the search engine and you'll come up with the clock I
use. It has two time windows that can be set anywhere from 0 to -8
(Pacific time) UTC. I use the top window for my local time and the
bottom one for UTC. The only problem is that during Daylight Savings
Time both clocks switch to DST leaving your UTC 1 hour ahead of actual.
Also, the front of the radio needs to face Fort Collins Colorado where
WWVB is located. Other than that it's nice. I paid $50 for it in April
2002, the price probably has gone up. But it's all I could find after a
thorough search on the net.

Try Radio Shack or Wal-Mart. I've purchased atomic clocks from each.

I have a little desktop/travel type clock that can be set to two timezones
(local and any of the other 23 primary zones) that I don't really use. I'll
send it to you for $5 (this basically just covers Priority Mail shipping and
my gas to get to the base post office to mail it..)

EBay. You may have to enter the search several times, like "UTC
clock", and then later another search on "Dual time clock", etc, but
you will find what you're looking for there in a hurry. Don't just
search on the word "clock" - the results would be beyond anyone's
patience to wade through.

Rev,

My suggestion would be to purchase an inexpensive clock and adhesive letters
of "UTC" and place them in the center of your new clock. By doing this, you
don't have to worry about DST throwing your UTC clock off.

If you have a puter or laptop near the radio, you might wanna look
into this. I've used it for over 12 years....Works great, less
filling...Good for watching grey lines, etc for any part of the world.
You can download a free working version in either DOS or windows. If
you pay, you can get a load of extra maps. I like to use the one of
Texas, and watch the sun creep across the land. It's pretty accurate.
Gives you as many time zones as you wanna punch in..They are next to
whatever city you choose for that zone. Also shows sunrise,set,
distances, etc. It's a cool program for an oldie...MK

BTW, for you solar inclined...I just noticed ole Sol just belched a X
flare...
