Most atomic clocks simply receive the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) time signal. They do not all allow for daylight savings time changes as not all areas use it.

You will have to adjust manually.

Why does my Centrios Atomic Nature Clock Radio keep changing time at night?

https://mb.nawcc.org/threads/setting-a-centrios-atomic-clock.32197/
If the atomic radio controlled clock is off by one or more hours, it probably has to do with the time zone setting. ... Other atomic wall clocks may allow the selection of any time zone, even time zones that are outside the WWVB coverage area. When purchasing a clock, make sure that it can display the correct time zone. https://www.weathershack.com/static/ed-atomic-clock-synch.html

I need to change the atomic clock from military time to standard 12-hour format...can't find original manual...have owned the Radio Shack clock for 5 years.

Hit the set button until the number 24 shows up instead of the time. Hit the "+" button once, and it will switch from 24-hour to 12-hour display. Hit the set button to cycle through the rest of the settings.

I can't get my atomic wall clock to set on daylite La cross wall

The easiest way to reset it would be to change it to Eastern time - that will give you the correct Central DST.

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 :)
