In the late 50's and early 60's Channel Master radios were made by Sanyo (Japan). This radio was made in Taiwan, I'm guessing early or mid 70's. Unsure of the manufacturer.
I'm a fan of many of the transistor radios from the 1970's. After some pretty dull, rectangular radios in the mid to late 60's colour and shape made a big comeback in the era of platform shoes, over-sized lapels and polyester leisure suits.

DCF77 Master Clock
Uses Arduino ATMEGA 328 IC, 1" Max2719 controlled 7 segment display with I2C 4x20 Yellow LCD information display.
Displays auto activated by PIR detector and auto brightness is set by LDR.
The DCF77 signal is decoded using the fantastic new DCF77 library written by Udo Klein.
An afternoon at the Science Museum. I can highly reccomend Thursday afternoons after 3pm as the time to go. It was wonderfully empty.

I decide to integrate the master controller via a freeduino or arduino AVR board. Just now the master was maded via a FPGA DE1 board for test but this board is to big to use into the field. Because the slave software run now perfect on the freeduino board, I will now transfert the master controller also to the AVR software. But on the master controller I need a lot inputs and outputs. Therefore I use the serial option to drive the 2x16 char LCD display and a few leds. As input I read also via de SPI lines all the swithes, rotary encoder and dipswithes from the userinterface frontplate. The remote TX module RFM12B is again connected to the PORTC of the Freeduino board. On the PortB I have now 3 extra TTL flash outputs. So the master can drive also 3 direct flashes. There is also a X-sync input signal from the camera to drive the master controller and to generate the correct signals on the remote wireless RFM12B module. Into the next days/week I will give the results of this unit.
How this works, timings, slave version see:

Update 2009 Aug 15:
STK600 board is setup for the tests, a breadboard is ready for the LCD display, leds, encoder and RFM12B module. I write now first the LCD display software so that the parameters are show on the display. AVR controller is the Atmega168, 20 pins Dip version. CLK speed = 16Mhz external xtall.
Update 2009 Aug 18:
The hardware is ready on the breadboard together with the STK600 developement board. LCD display connected via the 2 x 74HC595 ICs works and also the leds. Data is diplayed on the LCD. The 3 local flash outputs on this master are also ready. The next days I will continue to put the RFM12B module as transmitter. Thereafter the tests will be done together with the slavemodules.
Update 2009 Aug 31:
The SC-27 TTL cables from Nikon just arrived this morning. A lot of extra other components will furnish tomorrow. Extra LCD displays, registors, connectors,swithes, plugs etc. End this month 10 extra Arduino boards and shields will be furnished. Time to plan how to build all this together. In the meantime I test the software on both sides (Master and Slave).
Update 2009 Sep 02:
Many components just arrived today. Extra LCD displays, connectors, switshes chips etc... I work on the software and most parts are working now. Into the next days I will connect the flashes via the SC-27 cables and test the flashes. 4 flashes on the slave and 3 flashes on the master are supported. The LCD display show the different powersettings, flash types and used channels. Once all this works, I have to build this into a nice box. At the end of this month, 10 extra Arduino boards and shields must be delivered and also 10 extra Atmega328P chips.
On an extra Arduino board I will drive 8 highpower leds just near the flashes to see into the dark. So just wait a few weeks for all this new tools....
Update 2009 Sep 04:
Master software is running now, LCD display show all this values. Powerlevel can be change on every flash but also on a groep flashes. Results stay on the LCD display. Every flash can be enabled or disabled. The groep offset value have now 6 steps. This mean, the steps are added to all the flashes levels into the groep. 2 different groeps are supported, one Master groep (4 flashes) and one Slave groep ( 3 flashes). But the number of flashes into each groep is a parameter into the software code. The number in now limited by the I/O pins on the Atmega168 or Atmega328p. Now the step change is near 0.3 EV. On each channel you can select the type flash connected at the output. So if you have a SB29S ringflash you just need to change the type for the connected channel on the display. All flashes are connected via a small type phone connector 3.5mm stereo on one side. The other side is the SC-27 Nikon connector. I just divide every SC-27 cable in 2 parts. So now I have 6 cable to connect 6 Nikon flashes.
Now I have to build this hole Master into a nice small box. The display works on 5V, the other chips are running on 3.3V. Power will be delivered via a small 9V NIMH battery.
The next task is now to test the previous build Slave unit via the RFM12B modules. Software on both sides are ready for test now.
Update: 2009 Sep 05
I found a nice box 150x80x46mm to put all the components. Just started to mount all the parts into the box. Shema is now drawing again to be inline with the unit into the box. 4xAA batteries stay into the bottom of the box and give 5.25V for the LCD display. A 3.3V voltage regulator make the 3.3V for the Atmega328, the serial devices and RFM12B module. Into a few days I will show new photos of this unit. Sofware is running now and the flashes can be full programmed in TTL mode at any powerlevel. On the Atmega168 I need only 1844 bytes of program space. No need for any interrupt routine. Resolution for the flash timing is 2 usec. All flashes are fired central to the reference timing of the flash with the highest power, so this give really the best results for veryhigh speed captions. The remote flashes are also centrered with the master flashes. In total 7 flashes can be connected to one master and one Slave unit.
Update 2009 Sep 07:
Shema and layout are ready. Time to wire the PCB and put it into the box. Shema and layout stay here:
'Pala master' is a pretty untranslatable pair of Brazilian Portuguese slangs put together. 'Epic freak-out' was the closest I could get to capturing the spirit.
Thanx to Matt Seneca for proofreading the English version.
So it looks like this it going to be a three week project, but that's what I pretty much expected. They have actually been a lot of fun to build, especially texturing it, although with this light you might not be able to tell. The only problem is that they weigh more than I would've liked, but whatever, I'll work my way around it :)

Wikipedia reports: "Joshua Tree National Park is located in southeastern California. Declared a U.S. National Park in 1994 when the U.S. Congress passed the California Desert Protection Act (Public Law 103-433), it had been a U.S. National Monument since 1936.[3] It is named for the Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia) native to the park. It covers a land area of 790,636 acres (1,235.37 sq mi; 3,199.59 km2)[1]—an area slightly larger than the state of Rhode Island."

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats
