Default WWV receiver

Hello Peter,


Converting a 60 KHz receiver to 10 MHz is likely impossible -
construction techniques and tuned circuits will be quite different -
you can almost use audio techniques and iron-core coils at 60 KHz, but
are well into RF territory at 10 MHz, and will likely have to use
air-core coils in the tuned circuits.


Not just that. The transmitted code is also different.

Regards, Joerg

He wants to listen, and at least at 10 MHz there's something to listen TO.
The 60Khz signal is pretty strange.

No, its not. It was never intended to be listened to. It has a 1 BPS
data rate encoded time signal that has always been used to carry time
code.

In other words,,, he wants to experiment? Nothing wrong with that!

not so much after listening.
