Today, I brought my FTR1200S out of storage. It has been sitting there for just over three months.
She started instantly, but then I noticed the time-of-day clock was running about 5 hours fast. Hmmm, dunno how that happened, I'll take her home and try to diagnose what's going wrong.
As soon as it was out of the garage, the time miraculously came right. I guess it couldn't see any geostationary satellites when it was cooped up inside.
I would expect a few minutes tolerance, but five hours? Seems excessive.
