WWVB's Colorado location makes the signal weakest on the U.S. east coast, where urban density also produces considerable interference. In 2009, NIST raised the possibility of adding a second time code transmitter, on the east coast, to improve signal reception there and provide a certain amount of robustness to the overall system should weather or other causes render one transmitter site ...
Atomic frequency standards and GPS receivers designed for precision timing are often equipped with an IRIG output. The standards were created by the Tele Communications Working Group of the U.S. military's Inter-Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG), the standards body of the Range Commanders Council. Work on these standards started in October ...
A modern LF radio-controlled clock. A radio clock or radio-controlled clock (RCC), and often colloquially (and incorrectly [1]) referred to as an "atomic clock", is a type of quartz clock or watch that is automatically synchronized to a time code transmitted by a radio transmitter connected to a time standard such as an atomic clock.

WWV Transmitter Building (2002 or earlier) WWV's 15 MHz antenna WWV is a shortwave ("high frequency" or HF) radio station, located near Fort Collins, Colorado.It has broadcast a continuous time signal since 1945, and implements United States government frequency standards, with transmitters operating on 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 MHz.

Other cool features of this mid-priced sunset alarm clock are the variable duration of the sunrise or sunset simulations (20, 30, or 45 minutes), a light-sensitive clock display that brightens ...
These automatic signal clocks were synchronized by telegraphy in 1905 before the widespread use of radio. A time signal is a visible, audible, mechanical, or electronic signal used as a reference to determine the time of day.
