HOW TO SET AN EQUITY INSTA-STEP 44200 ATOMIC CLOCK?

That's the radio antenna. Just tuck it under the unit or along the back of the shelf or whatever if you get adequate reception. If you don't then you might try fussing with it--taping it up the wall, draping it over a book, that kind of stuff.

This solution from the answers below worked on my model 40007 clock today: If you hold down the button on top that says DST for like 10 seconds it will allow you to force change the time.
Thanks. wd 11/21/2010

This may or may not work. The 40009 and 40010 are almost identical. The 40009 doesn't mention military time and the 40010 does, so you might want to what the manual says. 40010 manual and 40009 manual. According the 40010 manual, is says:

Displaying the12/24 hour, Date, Month and Year:
Display the 12/24 hour by hold the "+" button for 2 seconds. To display the date, month and year by press the "-" button, the year appears and then if pressed again, the month and date (eg. “12 31” means Dec 31) appears.

So maybe that will do. I have a 40010, but my manual is different from the one on the website. Its DST button and not Alarm Set button to change the time. So maybe try holding down different buttons for a couple of second see if one lets you change it between 12 and 24 hour. Good luck, hope this helps.
