oregon scientific clock Retune a Radio Controlled Clock?
Does anyone know if you can retune a European Oregon Scientific Radio Controlled clock so it sets its self to UK time?
Or is there a way to block/disable the antenna so it doesn't pickup a signal so can be set manually?
Thanks
Yes its a digital clock,
Best to phone Oregon, It can be done because I've done it, but I can't remember how!! It was a case of holding buttons in and selecting a minus or plus sign I think!! I'm assumong youu're refering to a digital clock? Analogue, just take the hour hand off aand reposition it!

The first answer is good. But have you tried replacing the batteries? The clock might monitor the state of the batteries even though it's plugged into the mains. Battery back-up doesn't work very well if the batteries are dead.
The temperature readings are from internal electronics. Most clocks like that will give internal temps; some have the added feature of external (usually wireless) sensors for outside temps.
The "weather forecasts" are just based on the local barometric pressure and aren't particularly accurate. For instance, rising pressure = sunny, but that could also indicate a front moving through and some rain, or falling pressure = rain, but that could mean the front is passed and the skies are clearing.
Umm — transmit? They are designed to receive the US atomic clock broadcasts on shortwave (5, 10, 15, and 20 MHz from Ft. Collins, CO or Hawaii) and interpret the signals to reprogram the clock to the correct time once a day (usually 1 to 4 AM local time).
You may find that the one with weather also has a relative humidity sensor. If that would be useful where you live, then it might be a reason to choose it over the other.

Hi, JT here. I recently received a Projection Alarm Clock as a gift and thought that it was just the coolest thing ever. I've started giving them to friends and thought I'd do a little research and put a site together about Projection Clocks and Atomic Clocks. I hope you enjoy!

Reminds me of this Oregon Scientific clock radio [ ], which has the added bonus of being “Radio Controlled”.

have you tried resetting it by unplugging and removing the batteries? if so contact the manufacturer and asking them if they can help.
