I took a look at this. Pictures and video here: http://jks.com

I believe what they were doing is applying a simple 180 deg phase shift to the 
carrier (BPSK) during certain one second timecode intervals.
Whether there was anything fancier going on or not (like what DCF77 does) I 
couldn't tell immediately, although I did make a 192 ksps sound card recording 
for future analysis.

Apologies for the crude measurement and presentation. I had to throw this 
together in a hurry.
