The RM982A is the middle member of an Oregon Scientific clock trio that also includes the RM981A and RM983A. Functionally, the RM982A and RM981A are nearly identical. However, the RM982A's larger display window can show both local time and month/date simultaneously. Another difference is that the RM981A has a separate calendar display that includes the year, while the RM982A shows the year only during manual time/date setting. The RM983 is the most fully featured of the trio--it has an indoor thermometer, a two-line LCD window, and a larger time display than its two siblings. Check out all three clocks, and choose the one that best suits your needs.

A quick note: Here's a helpful hint for setting the clock's various time, calendar, and alarm parameters. In the diagrams that show how to do this, please be aware that a hand with extended index finger means that the indicated button must be pressed and held for 2 full seconds. Doing this causes the first settable parameter to flash, indicating that it is ready to be set. You then use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the value. Oddly, the explanation for the hand symbol is at the end of the graphics. We would have put it near the beginning. If the hand isn't shown, you need only press the indicated button momentarily.
