I have eight atomic clocks,none of them have the outside temperature working,all have new batteries???

If your outside temperature is not showing on your clock, that may mean that the clock and the transmitter have lost their connection. To reconnect them you must first take the batteries out of both of the units for 15 minutes. First put the batteries back into the transmitter, and then the clock. Let them sit side by side inside your home. When both the indoor and outdoor temperatures show on your clock with the same reading, or within two degrees of each other, then you may put your transmitter back outside. Remember to keep the transmitter out of the direct sun in a dry place. Also keep it away from metal, which can affect the readings.

Repair of Fantazein clock

If the moving spindle, where the LEDs are attached is either not moving, or jittering when power is applied, it is most likely that the PNP transistor (only one on board) is burnt and needs to be replaced by the like of 2N3906. It can be located next to where the speaker wires (x4) are soldered to the PCB, and next to the snubbing diode.Bic Tran

Please help me turn off the alarm

On my similar model, there are 4 buttons on the back. The 3rd button starting at the left is labeled ALM. You should be able to turn the alarm off by pressing that button.

Manual for SkyScan atomic clock -model 86742 I

Hello

The SkyScan ATOMIC Clock With the Skyscan Atomic Clock, you have the most accurate timepiece within the continent. It can receive the time signal transmitted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is regulated by 3 atomic clocks and deviates less than 1 second within 3,000 years. The NIST broadcasts the time signal (WWVB, 60kHz) continuously from Fort Collins, Colorado. This signal can be received anywhere in the continental USA that long wave (AM) radio reception is possible with a portable radio. It is expected that the signal can cover a distance of over 2,000 miles from the transmitter. Therefore, your clock will receive the signal within the broadcast range anywhere an AM signal can be received; generally the signal cannot be picked up in massive metal and concrete structures unless near a window. In addition, some environmental effects (see next page) may affect the transmitting distance.
