That assumes that both       of them have handled previous time change cycles correctly. If they       didn't, I'd wonder about their firmware. I've got 3 "atomic" time       keeping devices, 2 of which are about 20 years old. All 3 continue to       deal flawlessly with the time changes despite my condo being in a steel       girder building and in located in rooms with screens on all the windows.        I'm located in the mid-Atlantic in an urban/suburban neighborhood with       many nearby high rise buildings.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
