I connect the computer running Spectrogram and listen to the transmitted
tones - WWV transmits 500 and 600 Hz tones on alternate minutes, and I look
for these tones displayed on the Spectrogram screen - I set markers at 500
Hz and 600 Hz - then adjust the tuning until the tones line up with the
markers.  It is easy to get within 10 Hz this way. </snip>

Of course that's limited by the accuracy of the clock in your computer sound
card, which in some computers isn't very accurate!
