Questions & Answers

The clock will stop working after 5 hours with new batteries and we have tried this three times. ?

We were able to immediately connect our 1st unit with Colorado atomic clock, but the time remained incorrect for 1 1/2 hours. We returned it and it is on its way back to us The second one came in. As soon as I inserted the AA battery, the 2nd one set itself. The software has been running correctly ever 30th July 2021. There appears to be a need for improvement in the factory quality control process. This is typical in most factories in a certain country (I won't mention it or this post will be censored).

The time is ticking on this clock Are you hearing the tick-tock or are you Thanks a lot?

There are times when mine ticks quietly, and then there are others when it ticks loudly, and it can easily be heard from across the room. However, it is a fairly low-pitched tick. It sounds like a pitch airy tick that I am not bothered by. Even so, I probably wouldn't want it in a room like a bedroom or a study.

Are there any sounds coming from the clock? Some clocks can make a lot of noise, and I can't stand it. The hands moving at all is not what I want to hear. ?

It has never bothered me that the clocks make any noise. It is not unusual for me to have more than ten at The noise they produce from some of them is not noticed because they are located in office buildings. The noise from my clock is not an issue for me since I have a kuckoo clock at home.

Is the radio going to interfere if we set the time zone to an international time zone?

Yes, it is. Using this clock, you can only calculate the time atomically in local time zones in the United States The Pacific, the Mountain, the Central, and the Eastern regions are grouped as follows. When these time zones are not functional, the quartz capability operates, while the atomic capability is not functional.

I was very pleased with the results
3/5

This continued for a while until it did not. Originally from New York City, I currently live in Washington, D. C. The first time I got the clock, I put three batteries in it, and it set itself quickly, even when it was far from a western DST went into effect the following morning, and it set itself the following morning. In this case, DST did not set itself automatically when it started up again. In the following order, I tried the things I tried before reaching out to support 1) Set the clock in my westernmost window at the 3) Press the reset button to set the clock back to the start time. 1) Several times pressing the wave button. 2) Even though I had a 1 charge, I had to press the wave button several times. I replaced them when I found they had 47 volts. Following that, I contacted support. And I received the following response. The clock you are using has an issue, and I am sorry for the inconvenience. You may need to wait up to five nights to switch from daylight savings time to standard time, depending on several factors, including your location and the weather. The 5-night search starts over when you change the battery "

I am very sorry that you are having a problem with your clock with all the storms that have been going through. I believe that is why you have not received the WWVB signal. Currently, support is silent without offering any concrete solution to replace the clock or any real solution at all. Thus, 16 days after the time was changed (as of today), the clock is still sitting in the window and has not been set. This experience, as well as a few comments from support, suggests that the clock is not providing maintenance-related functionality It promises to give users the experience they desire for free. If it works now, then maybe the clock is faulty (as I will guess since it worked at first), or perhaps I just need to move closer to Fort. It's unlikely I will ever hear from Malcolm Collins since the company has stopped communicating with me and my return date has long passed.

When it receives the signal, it is great, but if it does not, it is a brick
3/5

The following update has been made In addition to writing this review, I contacted La Crosse and informed them about my faulty My original camera was defective after they told me to change the batteries, move it around, etc. I finally received a brand new one once they acknowledged that the original belonged to me. Do you know what I found out? As far as I can tell, the new version works in the same way. There was no time shift at the latest time change. My clock was on an east-facing wall, so it was a good idea to remove it from that position, change the battery, and leave it by a window There is nothing. There is no change in store. As long as it is shishkabobed directly onto the mast of the broadcast antenna, it would still not change if I drove it to Fort Collins, Colorado, where the signal originates. Ultimately, it's a waste of time. This atomic clock doesn't adjust like the others in my house. I have three or four others, and they all work fine. I wish you the best of I have updated The time on this clock has not changed once again as the time change has passed. During my stay at my house, it has not adjusted. There are four other atomic clocks in my collection Each of them is situated in a place where receiving a signal should be more difficult We recommend you update your clocks immediately or the morning following a battery change or DST change. There have never been any problems with this one. The product has passed its warranty, so contacting the manufacturer won't take care of the problem. The money was a total waste. The fact that someone would release a product that could potentially need updates is beyond my comprehension IT IS USED TO TELL THE In the manual, it recommends waiting UP TO 5 DAYS for the system to adjust on its own if the manual does not specify a manual adjustment method. It is beyond comprehension that engineers have done what they have done. Please, at least give us a reasonable override! Original You will be happy if you purchase this clock, follow the instructions from the box, and the clock sets itself. In case you cannot receive the signal, you will be disappointed. A LaCrosse clock is one of three I own. It turns out that two of them correctly adapted to the change in DST In the third, the one I view the most often, they didn't. The clock had to be taken down using a stepladder (a process I hoped to avoid in the first place), a new battery installed, it set by the window, I spun around on my left leg three times, I chanted, and it still didn't work. It is very difficult to manually adjust the time on these clocks due to the lack of a simple mechanism. Therefore, if you can't get signal from Colorado for whatever reason, your clock will essentially clock out for weeks at a time. It says you should not contact them for support until five days have passed without a signal. Who wants to wait five days with a clock showing the wrong time? There should be a manual reset process that allows you to set the clock by hand. (There is a tiny button that has to be pressed to do this. Complex to the point of absurdity. Four days after the time change, the clock has not reset and is next to impossible to set manually.

My current clock is garbage, so it's time for another
3/5

It was not the best service I received from La Crosse Technology 3014A - 3014C The following is the INT-14 Wall clock with an atomic movement. No matter what I did, it never worked. There were times when the clock displayed the wrong time. I changed the batteries several times and relocated it multiple times, but it never While this is not my first purchase of this time of clock, it is my first purchase of an atomic clock that has not worked. However, I refused to return the clock, as I was sure that there must be something wrong with it. As it turns out, the only mistake I made was waiting too long to return the clock and reclaim my money.

Up until Daylight Savings Time, the clock was accurate
3/5

The following time and date are Sunday, November 3, 2019 at The clock is currently set for 00 a. m. My favorite part of this clock is the design. The last time I did that was I'm not sure what happened in the last 30 hours since the clock now shows 5 I don't know what happened because it worked and looked great before. There are 21 minutes left in the day, and the time is now It is 0505 in the morning. The frustration is real. There are two other Atomic clocks I own and they have updated themselves without any problems. I think I bought Obviously, it is not updating properly, but all I know is that it is not responding when it should. There is nothing wrong with the clock, and it looks nice. Before you suggest that I reset it, so that maybe the problem will be fixed. As far as I am concerned, I shouldn't need to do it since it worked just fine during Daylight Savings Time last The issue will be fixed manually for now, and I'll see what happens when Daylight Saving Time begins in two weeks.

There is no time
3/5

This is terrible. Reliable sources are not available. These clocks have become a new addition to my collection. After the first one ran for a few months, the hour hand fell out of gear and stayed at number 6 until it was eliminated. Well, I guess I didn't get the one I wanted. My second order is in because I still think the clock is a good one. I suffered from the same problem after 2 months. A sudden swing of the hour hand at the number 6 forced the hour hand to stop. Hour and minute hands still continue to tally, but there is no way to determine what time it is. This product would not be recommended to me.
