Review on πŸ“» Reel Antenna for CC Shortwave by Javarie Malick

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I actually use it now on an old Heathkit WWV clock.

I first connected my old Heathkit GC-1000 "Most Accurate Clock" because it always had reception problems in this apartment. I'm not sure how much this improved things, but after re-syncing to WWV on power up, the mysterious 10 minute offset that suddenly appeared last year was gone (I suspect it was more a reset than a reset). on an antenna). I bought this clock (and RS-232) for my Western Digital Pascal MicroEngine after getting tired of manually entering the date and time every time I booted up my computer. Although I discontinued the MicroEngine in 1991 and donated it to the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California in 2008, I have supported the Heathkit GC-1000 Most Accurate Clock over the years. Heathkit Watch and finally C Crane CC Skywave as I learn more about its capabilities.
