Re: clocks

["Dave Hall" <dave@hallvw.clara.co.uk>]

There is an adjustment on the back - not the sort of thing to do
frequently, though.  It involves changing the hair-spring tension with a
small lever - fairly standard method for clocks.  The impulse type and the
transistorised clocks both adjust in the same sort of way.
