Huh???

Whatever are you talking about???

What do you mean by "ensure both CHU and the WWVs are in sync"?

Sync? The American (WWV) and Canadian (CHU) atomic clocks are within
*fractions* of a microsecond of each other.

Why are you making this so difficult and why are you beating it to death?
What don't you understand about WWV and CHU being *identical* (other than
fractions of a microsecond RF propagation differences)?

LIke I said earlier, WWVH and WWV can be on the same frequency because
they are perfectly sync'd up, at least for actual listeners. You don't
hear double ticks, and the only reason you know WWVH is there is because
they ID with a female voice, and and at a different time on the "wheel"
from WWV.

And of course, they aren't connected in any way, just well adjusted.

Same with CHU.
