Here are the photo&#8217;s from the one in my shack. I have the GPS option and have the GPS module positioned near the window in my shack. Above you can see the display showing different info.<br \/>\nThe basic cost of the clock without the GPS module and withought a case is $22.The GPS module adds $25 and the enclosure kit costs $40. The prices include shipping to us.<\/p>\n<p>My enclosure was printed on a 3D-Printer by a friend. There are many ways to enclose the clock and you can buy different enclosures or create one that&#8217;s perfect for you.<\/p>\n<p>This is an easy and fairly quick kit to build. We&#8217;ll schedule a Saturday morning at the Holyoke Hospital meeting room for a group build. There will be experienced people on hand to help you if you would like assistance.<\/p>\n<p>Next Spring, we hope to have a more advanced kit available and will have more information on this in the next few months.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to participate, send in the amount and a note with the options you want and we&#8217;ll get them ordered for everyone. <strong>The deadline is December 31, 2023.<\/strong> Checks need to be made out to the HCRA.<br \/>\nWe hope you will participate!<br \/>\nLarry, W1AST<\/p>\n<p><strong>Postal Mail:<\/strong><br \/>\nHampden County Radio Association<br \/>\nP.O.
