SKYSCAN Atomic Clock.

SKYSCAN Atomic Clock..The SkyScan comes with a foldout table stand so that it can be either desk or wall mounted. There are options to select either 12 or 24-hour displays, Fahrenheit or Centigrade temperatures, Daylight Saving Time on or off, and weekdays displayed in English, French, Spanish, or German. Unfortunately, all option buttons are located on the back of the clock, this includes the alarm settings.SKYSCAN Atomic Clock.. While this makes for a cleaner appearance, it means that if the clock is wall mounted it must be removed to make any changes.The wireless outdoor thermometer appears to work at least 250 feet from the base station without a problem. Both the transmitter and base unit require two AA batteries each. The transmitter comes with an included adhesive mounting pad, although its probably better to just set it on a flat surface so the batteries can be easily replaced when needed. The outdoor and indoor temperature sensors seem reasonably accurate; the indoor temperature display matched closely to a nearby mercury thermometer. Although the instructions recommend the clock be kept at least six feet away from any potential interference source, such as a TV or monitor, I've had no problem using it within four feet of a monitor.The only difficulty I've experienced is that it took hours for the clock to synchronize with the NIST signal from Fort Collins when the batteries were first installed. Fortunately, the clock can be set manually, so it was still usable while waiting for the synchronization process to complete.As the clock is less than a year old, I can't comment on its longevity; however, to date it has been trouble-free and accurate, and the batteries have not yet required changing.http://astore.amazon.com/ashley-furnitures-20/search/102-5362270-6188166?node=3&keywords=skyscan+atomic+clock&preview=&x=7&y=11
