69 clock

What is this hooked to the clock. Looks like some sort of resistor but I can’t figure why it’s there.

Noise suppression capacitor. It filter out voltage spikes that can cause radio interference. Apparently the clock has a kind of breaker point mechanism inside that can interfere with the radio.
