atomic clock for calc

Post by thecheat »

is it in any way possible for someone to create a program that goes to the frequencies of those atomic clock update towers/satelites this (of course) would need some extra electronics BUT now your 84 (SE) clock is always on time! *inhale*

most likely possible but not probable that someone would do it. i know i dont use the clock on my 89 Titanium very much because of the amount of times it crashes a week...i always have to reset it...i guess something like that would keep it on time but the perephials needed would probably be too large...

You know your hexadecimal output routine is broken when it displays the character 'G'.

</discussion about armbands>

thecheat, did you have something in mind like the shortwave receiver type or something more like a GPS? Both require a lot of new circuitry and an antenna.

The wristband on my watch is all sweaty, because it's made out of that silky fabric (like backpack straps). It never slips though ;)
