Hi Vlad,

There's lots of postings about this in the archives. For playing at home I 
usually use a GPSDO/1PPS as the time reference and don't worry about how 
accurate the 60 kHz carrier is. There should be lots of postings in the 
archives about all this.

The code itself is very simple. See for example:
http://www.leapsecond.com/notes/wwvb1.htm

You can also use PC audio through headphones as a transmitter for *both* the 
carrier and the subcode:
