That is my guess exactly after examining the board. The only non-volitile
chip I saw on that board was a real time chip ala 'Dallas' except this one
is another make. I will just cut the box off the chip and replace the
batt with a great big clone bat (aa+aa) that will keep the chip for life.

That is my plan anyway. I have done it to Dallas clocks without
problems.
