[R-390] WWVB and Automatic Clocks

Wed, 25 Dec 2002 14:57:38 -0600

Ron,
I have a similar clock, different manufacturer, but it doesn't normally see
WWVB well (even here in Oklahoma) till nightfall.  Best is right after
midnight.  I think my instructions hinted that it might not even search till
then, don't remember for sure.  I have to keep mine by a window to do well
with WWVB.  Works fine when it receives the signal though!!
73 and Merry Christmas,
Don, WB5HAK
