Yep, you certainly can set the clock to announce the time on the hour and
half hour only. The Voices and Chimes user interfaces each have three
check boxes: hour, half-hour, and quarter-hour, so by checking and
unchecking these boxes as desired, you can set the time and chimes to
sound only at the intervals you specify. You can launch Talking Desktop
Clock nanually from the Start menu, create a desktop icon to launch it
from the desktop, or create an icon in the Start-up submenu so that it
launches automatically whenever you turn on your computer. You can also
specify the starting and ending times during the day when you want to hear
the time announcements, so that you can silence them at night if you wish.
And you can even adjust the volume independently of the system volume, so
this little utility is highly customizable. Read the documentation that
accompanies the download for more details.

Hey, Jerald:
I was unaware of the talking clock, until I heard the mention, here.
Two questions:
1. Can the clock be set for hourly, or half-hourly anouncement? I think
I'd find quarter-hour a bit much.
2. How do you get it going?
Many thanks,
Cliff Smales

The Talking Desktop Clock is a little utility that automatically
announces the time at quarter-hour intervals along with a selected chime
sound. This is really useful when you're in the middle of something and
you're too busy to press Insert-F12 to hear the time. There are a number
of different voices and chime sounds to choose from, and it is very easy
to set up.
