Works for me - easy to read Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I just needed an easy to read, accurate clock for the shack that could be seen from 2 operating positions. This one works great. BIG 2" numbers make it easy to read, and since it sync's to the 60 cycle line frequency, it is accurate to a second or two a week. It works for my purpose, and was on sale at Dayton for $15.

On 03-01-2004, I purchased an MFJ Clock Model MFJ-113. I needed an ID Timer for HF
ID purposes. I received the clock to find it was a simple clock that had a 9 Minute
Snooze NOT a 9 Minute ID timer. I can buy this style in stores for $5.00. I called MFJ,
and talked to Richard with Customer Service. He instructed me that I needed to time
my conversations with the alarm, and use the alarm with the snooze.

I expressed my disappointment with the purchase of the product under false advertisement.
The product Specifications are very misleading and down-right Lies. Check it out

It states as follows:

The 12/24 Hour Desk Clock is great for your work area! It has a switchable 12/24
hour display, 9 minute ID timer, alarm, and a 9 volt battery backup! It uses 110 VAC,
60 Hz. It also has a compact size of 9W x 4H x 2.5D inches.

I don't see the word Snooze at all.....

MFJ told me if i would pay for the shipping to return the clock to them
that my money would be refunded.
So lets see the cost $ 19.95 + 5.99 shipping = $25.94 total

Now for the return of a product that i don't want:
$25.94 + 5.99 Return shipping = $31.93 - $ 19.95 for the product refund
= $11.98 the amount i was ripped off.
So why not keep the clock and give at for a christmas present at the cost of $13.96.

I am writing to simply tell you and yours about he scam they are pulling on hams.
Don't let it happen to you.
