Oh yeah, 33.3mHz. I'm concerned about latency issues
and use them only as a backup. I don't know if they are
just a repeater for the American time sources.

Something else I was thinking about the last couple
days that gave me pause: If the noise floor has gone up
so much lately for world band, then how come it is only
these time signals that I can't pull in as readily as I used
to years ago?
