[time-nuts] Nutty time-nuttery with WWVB

[Brooke Clarke]

Hi Pete:

It's been 4 years since WWVB added phase modulation that's supposed to fix the East coast problem.  Have you tried using 
a clock that makes use of it?
For example the La Crosse Model # 404-1235UA-SS from Home Depot.
I haven't got one yet since they are about $60 and my old style WWVB clocks work fine, but it would be a lot easier to 
get one as opposed to building something.

Have Fun,
