Terry,
I use the rubidium clock as a frequency source, not a time reference. It tells
me how well adjusted are the Nixie watches that I run for a few days before
shipping to customers. This was the first time in over five years that I even
bothered to set the atomic clock's display to within a second of UTC.

You had to adjust the worlds' most accurate clock? That thing should just KNOW
about leap seconds.

Terry,
I knew that none of my clocks that I made would do anything interesting with
it,
since none of them have calendars, so I watched the time.gov
<http://time.gov> clock page and shot
a short phone video of the leap second happening. It's a bit weird to watch.
I did have to adjust my rubidium Nixie clock after the event.
