Clock

[John Kountz]

With all the functions admirably performed by my K3 why is the clock so
inaccurate.  It looses time with startling glee and, considering WWV/WWV-H
are just a buttom push away, you'd think there would be some way to connect
the two the clock to the source.  While I am certainly not the only one to
make note of this flaw in an otherwise functional phenominon, I hope some
remedy can be provided.  At least to lessen the error which develops over
as short a period as two hours.

Same problem here and a replacement crystal did nothing to correct the problem.

The K3 has a clock?

I'd like to suggest an upgrade, albeit hardware / software related.  I want my K3 to have a little bird pop out of the front every hour.  It should say "Seek You, Seek You, Seek You" instead of a lame Cuckoo.  Of course it also needs to be synchronized to WWV

Yes the K3 has a clock.

The Seek You function is already available but it's an undocumented feature in the Config menu.
