In the 90's Junghans came to Miami to test reception because it was the farthest from Colorado and I coordinated their visit because I knew the then owners. They subsequently shipped me 2 analog, 2 digital clocks and 2 watches. The metal watches had an antenna in the leather watch band. The leather watch bands deteriorated over time but all 4 clocks still work and switch and adjust in Palm City 100 miles north of Miami Bert Kehren In a message dated 12/27/2020 9:02:05 AM Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Hello Andy,
I have an old Maplin digital LCD clock for MSF, and that is always about a second slow, but the Coopers analogue clocks are MUCH closer, as is the Junghens DCF digital LCD clock. But the Junghens DCF clock always misses one or other of the DST changes!
