I have a few NTP-synced (and PoE powered) analog clocks at home, a pair Symmetricom branded and a pair Spectracom, both are rebrands from different companies (Masterclock & Sapling respectively IIRC). One is a sweep hand, the other step, but both are loud enough to be annoying if it's particularly quiet. I keep one of the sweep-hand ones in my bedroom, and despite living inner-city where it's rarely quiet, late on a still night I can hear the motor (and it is annoying). The step clock is rather louder, but I keep it in my office which has a much higher noise floor, but even there it can be noticable. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to http://lists.febo.com/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts_lists.febo.com and follow the instructions there.
