You need to reset it to YOUR time zone. The default on this model is Pacific Coast time so you must be in the Central Time Zone (2 hours ahead of Central). Instruction manual should show you how to reset.

I have a Sharp Atomic clock , model SPC373 and the time is incorrect. Everything else is ok, how do I correct the time?

To correct the time on your Sharp Atomic clock, you will need to reset the time zone. To do this, press and hold the "Time Zone" button for 3 seconds until the time zone flashes. Then, press the "Hour" and "Minute" buttons to adjust the time zone to the correct time zone. Once the time zone is set, press the "Time Zone" button again to save the settings. The clock should now be displaying the correct time.

Looses time after day light savings time

Clock shouldn't lose time if it is receiving time signal. Do you have the signal indicator showing?
If not suggest you take the batteries out and reset the clock, making sure that you do not set a time.

After setting the time manually on my rcr-22, the next morning radio's time is 3 hours behind what it should be.

Underneath make sure the switch is set to your time zone. Also check the day light savings setting.

Savings time

This is more of a Clarification than a solution.
I've determined that the SS-5000 is not recognizing the changes to DST that happened in 2007.

From 1986 to 2006 this was the first Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October, but starting in 2007, it is observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, adding about a month to daylight saving time.

So in March the clock is still trying to keep the "earler" time and in November it's trying to keep the 'later' time.

I'm contacting HomeMedics Support to see if there's a resolution.

Sharp Atomic Clock Model Number SPC 374T

I had the same problem last year and called the number on the back of the clock 718-610-2717 - it was busy forever - finally I got through and they gave me another number to call - I did get the problem fixed I just can't remember how exactly to fix it again. I think I had to manually reset...I have been trying the original number again - but it has been busy for the 4 days I have been trying. I will keep trying...

Daylight savings time

so long as the US atomic clock adjusts their daylight saving times then you should be fine check this link for some more details (about the scr 110 but seems to be basically the same) http://www.amazon.com/H-H-Scott-SCR110-Atomic-Clock/dp/B00004TZDN/ref=sr_1_2/104-1966292-9407907?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1173502881&sr=1-2 hope this helps :)
