Hi Ian,

Yes, I have; I think it's probably switch wear; try shaking it about a bit or lightly hitting it. Very unscientific I'm afraid, but it works for me. Mine is 1981 vintage and still working; the batteries last for ages!

Cheers,

Mike

Hi all,

Bit of a long shot this one. I have one of the lovely old Sharp CT 660E talking clocks. When the voice is turned on via the volume control, the first time it's activated by the little button on the top it announces the time. Then it announces the alarm time repeatedly. This happens whether the selector is set to off or in any other position. I've tried removing and re-inserting the batteries to see if that would cure it but it hasn't. Has anyone else experienced this and been able to cure it or is it time to chuck the old faithful gadget in the bin?

Cheers now.

Ian
