Home Patrol clock issues

[JazzyJeff]

My Home Patrol has worked nicely ever since I've had it, except for one thing, the clock. The clock seems to get faster and faster every day which is an issue since I do quite a bit of recording with this thing (not as much as a news-gathering operation would though). Has anyone else had clock problems with their HP's?

I record using the Home Patrol's Trunked Discovery feature nearly full time. I've noticed that the first transmission of a conversation will often record and display a time that is just after the previously recorded transmission - even if that transmission happened an hour ago! This is an issue which I'm hoping gets corrected in the next firmware update. As far as the clock itself goes, mine has been pretty accurate.

I have never had a issue with the clock on the HP-1. Could UPMan post something on this?

I've not had a problem with it, either.

Thanks UPMan for your post.

Same problem with the what sounds like pretty much the same usage conditions here too.

Just for the heck of it mine is # 121

I did not know it had a Clock. Where is it??

When you turn it off you are offered the option of having the clock displayed.

It can be set from the main menu.

I guess that is why I never knew, I never turn it Off.
