Congratulations on your purchase of your new Timex Wireless Weather Station. 
We thank you for your interest in this state of the art weather monitor. We know 
that you will get many years of use out of this latest addition to our fine line of 
precision weather products. We encourage you to read through this instruction 
booklet that carefully highlights all of the features of Timex model TX6180. Enjoy 
the   useful weather data that you will be able to view hour by hour. Each of the 
instruments has been developed to respond to changing conditions as fast as 
they take place. Each precise instrument accurately reflects temperature, 
barometric pressure, and hygrometer readings. This model lets you know when 
the sun rises and sets in the top 50 locations in the USA and Canada. You will 
also be able to track the minimum and maximum temperatures and humidity 
readings. Your radio-controlled alarm clock   is the most accurate clock in the 
world taking its constant radio signal from the Atomic Clock in Colorado. This 
radio signal will update the time on your clock to reflect the split second accuracy 
of that Atomic Clock.    Again we thank you for your purchase. We appreciate 
your business.
