Does WWVB switch to DST, or, just set a bit in the data stream telling the device that receives the signal that DST is active? I seam to remember (that is dangerous) that WWVB data has GMT time encoded into the data stream and that it is up to the receiving device to display the correct offset from GMT.

My buddy, Google, found the data WWVB transmits here:

Hope this helps

I wonder if WWVB switches to DST around 0200Z, maybe?  Since it can't
tell where your local zone is.
