NOTICE OF SCHEDULED BROADCAST OUTAGE:

Due to an electrical upgrade, Radio Station WWV will be off the air on
all frequencies on February 21 and 22, 2017. The outages will occur
between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM Mountain Standard Time, and will not exceed
8 hours duration each day.

I've got too much politics on the brain. I was SURE the notice said:


NOTICE OF SCHEDULED BROADCAST OUTRAGE

The guy who sits in the box telling the time 24hours a day, 7 days a week
for all these years is finally tired of it all. So they are really giving
him a two day vacation, the first since WWV moved to Colorado over fifty
years ago.

Slacker. He should be ashamed. The woman at WWVH does the time
announcements 24/7 AND finds time between the announcements to do phone
company announcements and she's also giving me directions on my GPS.

I wsa thinking after I posted that this is a good time to receive WWVH.

Though I remember, back when I spent more time listening to WWV, that WWVH
would come in fairly regularly. SInce the voice was female, and the voice
announcement was at a different time, you could hear it, and know it was
WWVH because it wsa a female announcer. The rest lined up really well, so
you didn't get a heterodyne, or double ticks.

For those who need their standard time fix tomorrow and Wednesday, CHU
keeps on ticking, though the odd frequencies made it less useful for
adjusting a crystal calibrator.

Ironic, ehh? That Canadian time station is so reliable,
yet the stations in the country WHERE THE ATOMIC
CLOCKS ARE ACTUALLY LOCATED have, over
the last 15 years, become hit or miss reception, here
on the east coast at least.


And can someone set me straight: From WHERE do
each of the following time stations transmit?...

WWV?

WWVB?

WWVH??

You're a ****ing idiot.

Especially when you don't even know what frequencies to tune in.
You've already explained that you don't understand the advanced math
required to tune a receiver to a station's frequency, because of your
shoe-sized IQ.

And can someone set me straight:

No, it's not possible. You're too ****ing stupid.

WTF? WWYWSIEB? WAFA. FCKWAFA.

The Canadians have NO NEED for needlessly dangerous Atomic Clocks. The
Canadians have a network of enormous Sundials located above the Arctic
Circle. The sundials give highly accurate solar powered time checks
24/7 on and around June 22. Then David Suzuki figures out the rest.

WHY do you want to know? There's a damn good reason the location is
NEVER broadcast on the stations, why you will NEVER find out the
location from NIST and why the location remains undisclosed on Wikipedia
TO THIS VERY DAY.

Are you a TERRORIST? Do you intend to make a TIME BOMB?

Because knowing the locations might be helpful
in knowing which ones are EASIER TO RECEIVE.

You one of those Bushies who thinks everyone's
a "turr'ist"??

Nothing tops a working radio for determining what's EASY TO RECEIVE.

Maybe you're a spy, trying to steal our nation's ATOMIC TIME SECRETS
for the Chinese before The Magnificent TRUMP gives them to Putin.

I think you have excessive curiosity concerning America's Top Secret
ATOMIC TIME PROGRAM. If you're thinking that ATOMIC TIME TECHNOLOGY
will somehow aid you in building a TIME MACHINE, I should warn you that
that approach HARDLY EVER works.

Correct, it has only worked once. However, it hasn't happened yet.

Wo-wo-WOOAAA! Chill!

You've gone off on a greater tangent
than Jimmy Blozet when his car threw
a wheel at Daytona.

All I want is to be able to tune in to 5, 10.
15, 20, or 25mHz once per month to
reset my windup and other dummy
clocks and watches! That's.

all!

That was Jane Barbe at WWVH. Nearly ALL Bell System recordings used her sweet voice. She passed in 2003.
