A typical quartz crystal found in a radio controlled clock can probably keep time to within 1 second for a few days or longer. Due to technology advances and the economies of scale, radio controlled clocks are now very inexpensive, often costing just a few dollars more than conventional clocks. EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES.
