A bit over the top for most reasonable folks. The majority of Americans
shop at Wal-Mart except maybe a few on the fringe or extreme upper

Because they use Chinese prison labor to build them, probably.
That's just ONE reason I don't shop at Walmart.
But I certainly agree on the other aspects of your post -- These gadgets

Initially, I was thinking that the clock had the software to determine
the change in daylight time and I think my La Crosse Technologies Clocks
and my other atomic clock has a setting for this. But here in the U.S.,
didn't they change the DST data change? So, if the clocks changed
accordingly,
My 4 or so clocks have grudgingly changed over...It is also up to the
band conditions whether or not you get a good enough signal...

Aha! You said it. I looked up the WWV Time Codes at
http://tf.nist.gov/stations/wwvtimecode.htm
and it shows "DST indicator #2" and "DST indicator #1" as part of the
code stream. When I used
to build my own LED readout station clock that used WWVB time codes,
those bits were not there.
Hi Hi
I didn't get a signal at all, and none of the 3 WWVB clocks changed.
Hopefully I'll get a signal tonight, and everything will be fixed.
