   SETCCB was to the real time clock add=in card.  Geez... I don't remember if   
   I still have the data on that or not.  [I actually had some of the cards   
   until a couple of years ago, but gave most of that stuff away.  I don't   
   know if any of the machines I still have contain a CCB card or not.]   
      
   The Syncro is different.  It changes the divisor used on a chip on the   
   motherboard (or CPU board, depending on model).  That's all in the hardware   
   manuals, which I *do* have.  If you need to know, drop me a note to the   
   e:mail address below - it will take me a bit to dig them out of the   
   archives, but I will be happy to do so.   
      
   [You can always DDT the utility on your boot disk.  It's not very big.]
