Vintage Heathkit GC - 1000 Electronic Digital Clock




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:6810936Brand: Heathkit
Original Description:
This “Most Accurate Clock” was built from a kit in about 1982.  It is in very good condition with only a few minor scratches.  You can see from the photos, that it is able to synchronize with WWV at all three frequencies depending on atmospheric conditions.   For each photo, I locked it onto the single frequency and let it synchronize after being plugged in.
In my location and this time of year, 5 MHz is the most reliable but you may find either 10 MHz or 15 ...MHz more reliable in your location.  The full assembly manual including schematics is included in this auction.
A little "back story" to this listing is that my brother was a design engineer at Heath in the mid to late 70's.  Prior to joining Heath, he had built an electronic clock that would maintain extremely high accuracy after being manually synchronized with WWV.  He denies any involvement in this item although he did design another digital clock while at Heath.  This clock was designed after he left Heath but I have always considered that his projects might have influenced the development of this clock.
