 "Does it work?" 2007-06-12
By Suzanne E. Frew
We bought this clock thinking it would automatically change time when you entered different time zones, but on our trip to Europe, the clock never left California time. I paid about $30 for this thinking it would be a great help on our trip, but it didn't do what it said it would do.

 "Hate this clock!" 2007-03-21

The clock is a great size for travel, but I don't like it at all. It doesn't synch quickly enough to the Atomic Clock, the instructions do not tell you which Atomic Clock to select, and changing the alarm time is difficult. If you get up at the same time each day, it would be fine, but if you change your schedule, it's too much work. Had an old Casio clock that was almost as small that worked much better than does this.

 "Difficult to use/hate it!" 2007-01-02
By Donald D. Anderson (Easton, CT United States)
This clock is the most difficult electronic clock we have every owned. it is extremely small -- the back lighting poor -- the placement of the function keys on the back require you to try to change time or function with your hands pressing a 1/4" button on the back of the clock -- yet monitoring your "progress" or lack thereof by looking at the front. the print on the case below the LCD describing what you are seeing requires a magnifying glass and this clock keeps resetting us to California time on its satellite pick up! The manufacturer has no readily available phone number (Japanese) so I am about to try to contact them via email for some assistance. My advice to you is to skip this one entirely -- it is a waste of nearly $50!!!!

 "OK" 2008-04-06
By MEJ (Seattle, WA USA)
I bought this for around twenty dollars at office maximun (sp) a couple years ago and have seen it recently for much less. The idiglo backlight is ok and better than the incandescent like light on the few SkyScan atomic clocks I have.

 "Save your money" 2008-01-18
By R. J. Beilstein (North Syracuse, NY USA)
This was my fourth "atomic" alarm clock, and by FAR the worst I've ever owned. The controls are anything but intuitive, and the receiver doesn't seem particularly sensitive (I had it sitting right next to the Oregon Scientific clock I use at home, and the very nice Seiko QHR016 travel alarm that I bought to replace it, and both the Oregon Scientific and the Seiko picked up the signal fine, while the Digiview saw nothing).



The worst part, however, is the LCD screen and backlight. First off, the LCD fades badly if you're not looking at just the right angle. The really dim green backlight does too. Unfortunately, the angle at which the screen is most readable and the angle at which the backlight is brightest do NOT coincide. What's more, when my clock was sitting on the nightstand next to my bed, I could not read it without picking it up.



I know that this is a really minor quibble compared to the rest, but the alarm has a really unpleasant tone (at least for me).



Let me put it this way -- I spent almost $50 on this clock just a few weeks ago, and I recently bought the Seiko travel alarm (which I love), and threw the Digiview RC304EL in the trash (even though it was still "working"). That says it all.
