Frequently Asked Questions 

 

Q. How long will the battery last?

 

A

.

 

A good AA alkaline battery will last over 24 months.  

 

Q: 

Can I wire a control timing circuit to the La Crosse Technology® atomic 

clock?

      

A: 

The clock cannot work on a timing circuit. Opening the clock voids the warranty. 

 

Q: 

Is there a booster antenna to receive the WWVB signal in a difficult location?

 

A: 

The clock cannot work with a booster antenna. Opening the clock or movement 

voids the warranty. 

 

Q: 

Can I shut off the WWVB signal?

 

A: 

No.  If you manually set the time, when the clock receives a WWVB signal, that 

signal will override the manual set. The WAVE button will temporarily stop a WWVB 
search, but will not permanent stop the clock from receiving a WWVB time signal.
