Hi Bill, I have no direct knowledge of the situation, but I have noticed that in my area the time signals seem to piggyback on the PBS stations, and in my area many of the PBS stations have ditched their analog signals earlier than the FCC mandate for digital TV.

Aficionados of accurate time, I have two Panasonic DVD TV recorders, a DMR-EZ27 and 28. They were set to automatically sync time to a TV station. This worked fine until a few months ago. Now they are on manual time, but, of course, they drift. Tried to turn automatic time setting back on this morning. The screen says, "This may take a few minutes." It still said that 10 minutes later, as the busy indicator continued to rotate through three spots. Gave up on automatic and asked the only group I know that might know. Why did TV stations stop broadcasting time signals? HDTV requirements? Could a cable company interfere with the time signals?
