Hi Bob.

That's not what I was asking.    What I would like to know, is:-

Should the clock use External power (if present) instead of the
installed batteries (whatever their type might be) when the radio is in
the "OFF" state (i.e. Not in use.)

If I remove the cell's, then they retain their charge for many weeks
without problem.  In the radio, they will drain to a low value after a
couple of weeks.  Even if it is still hooked to the always on, shack DC
power system.

Is this a "Feature" or "Fault/Bug" ?

73.

PS:    I have had no trouble setting the clock from the utility program,
running Windows(7) or Linux(Mint).
