Peter, 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 income. We shop at War-Mart because of the convenience of having everything in one place, even in a rural area where I live. Without them, I would b

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,

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. jgorman01 wrote: > My atomic clock changed right on time. I would have to look at the > manual, but the clock itself may have the software for DST. However, >
