[TenTec] Discussion of Ten-Tec Equipment Paragon II clock.

[Mark Kenward]

My clock in Paragon II was acting goofy, wierd symbols, clock quit each time I shut off rig, so I located a chip-DS 1287A+  which was purported to be direct replacement.

Installed it, KNOWING it had an additional pin(reset) as board had a spot for it.

Clock now acts as a run time counter.  Starts back up at whatever time was when rig was shut off.

I clipped the reset pin off, and verified no contact , with same results.


Anyone have an idea on this one?

thanks,
