Hello netpeople,

It's some time ago, that <CB> found out, that the AMIGA clock is too
slow. We found out, that it is 10 Hz too slow. People at Amiga (or was
it Commodore ?) thought, it would be less expensive to use the AC-frq
as the CIA's real time clock. OK, it works (not very precise, but it
works - works with US-60 Hz.
In 'good ole Germany' we have 50 Hz, which is 10 Hz less. Trying to
change the 50/60 Hz-Bit in 68000 failed. Does the workbench clock set
the CIA's TOD to 60 Hz or did I something wrong ?
Anyway, It would be a great help, if someone of you could tell us how
to make that clock run at the richt speed.

                so long       Kosta
