What does this alarm clock use to keep time? Is it primarily a waveshaping circuit off of the 60hz AC that clocks digital circuit - or - does it run always off of a crystal time keeping circuit? I assume for battery backup, it has a crystal time keeping circuit. If it does use 60hz AC, how does it switch when power may be detected as low? The problem is that every once and a while the clock gains time, but no AC has been lost (as far as observed). Thanks. Larry Park
