[time-nuts] Used Spectracom

[J. L. Trantham]

I have two 'cheap' WWVB 'Atomic Clocks', both of which say they are 'locked'
and are about 2 minutes apart.

I'm not sure what the status of the new modulation scheme is at the 
moment, but my Spectracom 8170 is still keeping good time.  That's 
about all I use it for anymore - a clock in the rack.  It says it's locked.
