That Damn Alarm Clock

[azurelunatic]

Today I was cleaning out TFM drawer, and found TFM for my alarm clock. I wound up at the company website looking for support. Incidentally, if you're looking for The Effing Manual or support for Timex alarm clocks, you want http://www.timexaudio.com/ -- timex.com does not have any alarm clock support, nor does it cross-link to their alarm clock site. I wound up submitting a support request with them for the damn clock:

I wish to permanently disable the "smart" daylight savings time option on my T276. The manual informs me that this is a feature that I should be pleased with; however, I live in Arizona, which is a state that does not practice that heathen custom. The manual is singularly unenlightening on the topic of turning the feature off. Is there some secret button combination I must master to turn it off, or am I doomed to a twice-a-year unpleasant time surprise until I upgrade the dang thing? Otherwise it's a very nice clock that has served me well.
