OK that is a different issue to that which I think many folks understood 
from your original comment.  I don't find zero beating WWV to be a 
problem when trimming up the TCXO calibration, the wow, wow wow is easy 
to detect and fine tune.  Indeed, it is a regular requirement, not a do 
once and forget issue, assuming it is ever done in the first instance 
after a kit build.
