That was still the best talking alarm clock ever made.
It had no bong sound and a volume control.

Subject: Sharp Talking Clock
Anybody remember the Sharp Talking Clock that came out years ago? I = still
have mine but with a cell phone and the atomic talking clocks we = have in
the house, plus my atomic wrist watch, I've just found little = purpose to
use the old Sharp. I got it out and changed the dead = batteries and
fiddled around with it and have it set to tell me the time = on the half our
and on the hour. Plus, I'm using it as a timer when = riding my stationary
exercise bike. I got to figuring about when I got = mine and it turned out
to be 34 years ago. The thing is still working = great. That was around
the time Mount Saint Helens blew. That is = related to an interesting ham
story on 20 meters sideband I'll tell = next.
Phil.
