Actually, the US has a 60 kHz time signal like the European ones, but the transmitter is in Colorado, so the signal is almost too weak for radio set clocks on the coasts. They just increased the power in the last year or two, so that may have improved. You can get the clocks here, too. Mark Zenier mzenier@eskimo.com Washington State resident
