@HopelessDemigod Did not know that. Thanks. I have three atomic clocks and they've been having trouble getting a "fix". It never occurred to me there might be an extended problem at the transmitter.

The question is why isn't it fixed? I'd imagine they'd fix it real quick. WWVB is not an experimental service.
