The manual provides detailed instructions for installing an electric clock timer kit into Hammarlund communications receivers, specifically models HQ-100, HQ-110, HQ-170, and HQ-145. It includes step-by-step guidance on setup, operation, and troubleshooting, emphasizing careful handling of components and proper soldering techniques to ensure successful modification and functionality.
Manual Overview
The Hammarlund Electric Clock Timer Kit #26380-Gl manual provides detailed instructions for modifying HQ-100, HQ-110, HQ-170, and HQ-145 communications receivers to include a clock-timer. The process requires basic tools and a small soldering iron. The manual emphasizes careful handling to avoid damaging components, particularly during soldering, where only radio-grade rosin core solder should be used without additional fluxes. The installation involves removing the receiver’s cabinet, installing the clock assembly, and making specific wire connections as per the provided diagrams. For HQ-100 and HQ-110 models, a shaft extension must be cut and securely attached. The manual advises ensuring all connections are secure and free of foreign matter before reassembling the receiver. The clock’s operation involves setting the hands via a rear knob, with options for automatic pre-warming or alarm functions. The clock runs continuously when connected to a 115-volt power source.
Quick Issues Covered
- Diagnose power-up failures by checking clock switch connections.
- Calibrate clock timer by adjusting shaft extension length.
- Use schematics for circuit tracing and wire soldering points.

Installation / Setup
The installation of the Electric Clock Timer Kit #26380-Gl for Hammarlund Communications Receiver models HQ-100, HQ-110, HQ-170, and HQ-145 involves several key steps. Before starting, ensure the power cord is unplugged and all wires are disconnected from the rear terminals. The receiver should be placed face down on a clean towel to prevent damage. The cabinet is removed by unscrewing the screws at the rear, and for certain models, loosening a cabinet release screw.
The clock assembly requires careful installation, including the removal of specific screws and the placement of the clock window and mechanism. Wiring involves soldering connections using a clean soldering iron and radio-grade rosin core solder, avoiding any fluxes. The wires from the clock assembly are inserted through the chassis and connected to the appropriate terminals, with care taken to avoid interference with other components.
For models HQ-100 and HQ-110, a shaft extension must be cut and securely attached. After completing the wiring and assembly, the cabinet is reattached, ensuring the clock shaft extension is properly aligned. The clock switch knob is then installed.
The installation process requires attention to detail, particularly in soldering and wire management, to ensure proper function and safety.
