[Premium-Rx] Time Signal Station Receivers sought

[w3jn]

I have a clock/WWV receiver that decodes the minute tone to sync the 
clock.... it's certainly not a premium receiver, it's about as crummy as you 
can get.  The clock portion is exceedingly well made, but there's no name on 
it anywhere I can find.
