I would be suprised that even as a joke the listing above could win any arguments for the extraordinary lack of performance of Elecraft RTCs. A $5 watch does better by orders of magnitude...even the Dallas Semiconductor RTC in 30-year-old Kantronics hardware does better. The manufacturer specs for all the Elecraft RTC chips promise much better. Unlike the items in the quoted listing, a customer does indeed have every right to expect a competent RTC implementation when he purchases the option. No??? Elecraft fans often have a great tendency to dismiss without substantive basis any non-worshipful criticism...at least as far as I've observed in 16 years as an owner and list member. :-) Mike / KK5F ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
