#speakingClock done!
Hmm. Except… I’ve only just noticed a bug that puts it in 24hr mode, when it should be 12hr
That bug has been there since I wrote this in 2017 - how has no one ever noticed this?
It’s also a bit quiet on the internal speaker, but I’ll be using the headphone jack when I install it in the #strowger #TelephoneExchange at the #DeanForestRailway #museum display (next time I’m there)

I recently scored three dell thin clients for under £8 each.
Spec is similar ballpark to a raspberry pi, but with an x86 chipset and so much cheaper!
One of them will become a standalone #speakingClock system for the #DeanForestRailway #strowger #telephoneExchange (replacing a #museum exhibit that went offline in ~ 2019)
One of them will probably become a remote control host for my #icom #ic7300
The last one is likely to be kept as a spare for now, unless I can come up with another project.
