Question
Hello,

How do I get my Ansonia clock to chime more than once on the hour and once on the half hour, instead of once on the hour and more than once on the half hour?

Thank you,
Joe Koontz

Answer
while it is doing the hour when the minute hand is at "6"  continue and move the minute hand clockwise to 5 after the hour.  it will there after strike the hour with the minute hand at "12" and only once when at "6"

move the hour hand then to agree with the number struck on the hour--then work the minute hand around to have the clock read the current time(stopping at each to let it strike)
