The GPS system is vulnerable. The systems at NIST aren't nearly as
vulnerable.
GPS is a navigation system it is not a time keeping system. Every ballistic
missile this country still has uses INS not GPS. It's "jam proof".

What is the justification for continued funding of WWV? Hasn't it been
obsoleted (if that's a verb) by GPS as far as being a time and freq
standard?
