Is there a URL where I can hear WWV time signals & announcments? (I realize
there is latency that effect the accuracy but this kis unimportant for my
purpose.)

Thank you,

Dave Pitz

Whoa -- you sed times and ANNOUNCEMENTS the NIST site gives times only

If you want the announcements -- try an on-line web receiver - see URL:
http://ac6v.com/swl1.htm#WC


Also you can download a program that automatically updates your computer
clock upon bootup or command so it is accurate within fractions of
seconds -- so at anytime just look at your computer clock

Also, if you want to sync your computer to a time standard,
do a search on "Dimension 4" when set up, will adjust your
computer clock to the reference (and there are several, along
with NIST) Jim NN7k

D4 works well, but you don't necessarily need to add software, some
operating systems support sntp natively... eg Win 2K and XP. You just
have to work out how to activate it.

Doesn't everyone syncronise their computer clock nowadays?

I must be the only one still using Windows 2000 Pro at my home. It
works well, so I'm in no hurry to "upgrade" to anything else.

But HOW do you make W2K support sntp? I've never found that option, and
I use an external program to make it work.

Thanks,
