WANTED: Grasslin Famoso 601rf timer thermostat

[bureaucrazy]

Hello, the clock broke on my wireless mechanical timer thermostat for my baxi boiler.
The item is 20 years old now so someone might have a spare one from removing an old boiler.
The Grasslin famoso 601rf was supplied for several brands but its the same other than badge, e.g. baxi, ideal, alpha, grasslin.
Another variation has day&night temp dials rather than just one dial like below. Either will work for me.
If you have a spare or see one from a boiler you are replacing, please let me know.

Thanks for looking it up. I was trying to get a freebie on here lol. But, I should have one soon.

It was the clock module of my thermostat that was not working. The temperature and transmitter switching boiler on/off was still working so I replaced the clock module with a known working clock module from an old unit. Unfortunately, with the clock replaced, it still does not tick or go round in my original thermostat indicating a PCB issue.

I will have to buy a whole new thermostat timer.

Do I also need to buy a matching round antenna module that fits in the boiler?

My boiler already has the antenna module that came with the original broken thermostat.

Are all grasslin 601RF thermostats compatible with all antenna modules or do you need to buy a matching pair when replacing the wall thermostat?

I am thinking the thermostats and antenna pair are set to a specific frequency or something, otherwise you might start controlling your neighbours boiler if they were all compatible.

I have seen thermostats for sale as suggested, but they do not come with a boiler antenna so I fear it may not match the old antenna in my boiler.
