GPS clock in Sweden

For GPS Clock

My clock works fine. I bought a new GPS antenna to receive extra satellites (e.g GLONASS). In northern Sweden we often find that it is good to have GPS antenna with ability to capacity to catch many satellites. Otherwise I am very pleased.

Unfortunately, the SkyTraq timing module does not support GLONASS or any other non-GPS satellites (it does support GPS WAAS systems, where they are available).

Sidereal clock mechanism comes with American "I" shaft

For Crazy Clock

When I purchased this mechanism I knew nothing about the American "I" shaft hand configuration. I tried everything to get the existing minute hand on the mechanism and finally did a google search on why my clock hands wouldn't stay on the mechanism. There was no shaft nut included with the mechanism hands so I had no idea that I needed one. There was no documentation with the mechanism so I had to learn this all on my own.

Response from Geppetto Electronics | May 2, 2021

You should have gotten a little plastic bag of hardware, which includes two options for nuts to hold the minute hand in place - an open one compatible with the addition of a second hand and a solid one for applications that don’t use a second hand. If you didn’t get that bag of hardware then that was a mistake and I’ll be happy to send you a replacement.

The movement is a modified Quartex Q-80. A selection of alternate hands is available from klockit.com.
