XTS 5000 has no CLCK

[n6wzl]

I set in CPS to either 12 hour or 24 hour with standard display format added CLCK to menu. This should enable CLCK button in menu display. But, no CLCK option is available. According to the manual, CLCK should be always available. What am I missing here?

Only thing that comes to mind is that CLOCK can be on in conventional and off in trunking mode, or vice-versa.

To W2NJS, CLCK is available in both on my XTS5K ...

To N6WZL, You have to enable it and assign a soft key in CPS for it.
Is this the point where you say it is not available as an option?

If so, what version CPS are you using?)

I did enable it in clock setting (12 hour or 24 hour format) and assigned a soft key. I read a help screen in CPS on the subject, and it does say that clock is only available with radio with keypad. Does this mean that it is only available on model III? It doesn't make sense since setting time and date only requires the four arrow keys.

Our 5000s are model IIs and we have the CLCK option. The menu option should always be a valid selection in the list of available menus.

Let's take the time to read what people write. I wrote:

"Only thing that comes to mind is that CLOCK can be on in conventional and off in trunking mode, or vice-versa."

Which to me, at least, means that you can have CLOCK on in both modes, or either mode, just as is written in the help section for the XTS CPS.

Do you have CLCK selected in both the trunking and conventional menus
