You might find that being a mass produced clock, (and I'm assuming it is) that the clock chip is bonded directly to the pcb and covered in a blob of epoxy. However it should be possible to find the point where the 60Hz is taken from the output side of the transformer, and inject a 60Hz clock derived from a cystal. It will most likely not matter if its a sine or square wave signal, if you have one try with a signal generator first. Good Luck. Rich |
