This happened to use twice yesterday and today, these alarm clocks automatically change themselves for the fall back and spring ahead, you never know when it will change?? Mine changed yesterday, and the wife's today, she was an hour late for work! Anybody else have a alarm clock that does that?
 
Yeah - we've got one that does that too. Used to change on the last Sunday in October. Now I never know when it is. There must be a formula, but I haven't figured it out. Dad refused to change his watch, and I never could figure out how he could keep track of two times at once, but he did. He called his time "Railroad time".
 
I have one of those atomic clocks from a few years ago in the shop and it "fell back" one hour during the night last Saturday night. The old program was hour change on the last weekend of October. I think I"ll just let it go until the new change comes into effect.

Mine, both the clock, and my watch update on the specified day... Must be in the "atomic clock" radio signal.
 
Actually Mike - I think your's (and one of mine) is not the "atomic" clock, but instead has a ROM chip that tells it to change on a specific date. I do have one that responds to the WWV radio signal, and it doesn't change until it is supposed to.
 
On the subject of Atomic clocks, Is there a "Walk in Store' that carery these Clocks, I need one for My Shop but even their 800 numbwer doesn't work?? So idk any Info. Appd Larry
 
I love them "Darn" alarm clocks.
My wife has a bad habit of forgetting to cancel it on her days off. Set for 5am to get up for work. She only works 2 12hr shifts a week. The other days when it goes off I take advantage of it ,
wink, wink.
