Just as an added comment to my previous post, you seem not to understand the 
principles of longwave transmission, if you think that WWVB will stop at 
at the Canadian border! 

WWVB transmits from Fort Collins, at a frequency of 60KHz. The reason for 
this ultra-low frequency is to eliminate directionality, and to allow its 
ground wave to travel large distances. Yes, even into our homes in Canada 
that (as every American "knows") are igloos, and where it snows continuously 
as soon as you cross the 49th parallel.

Bob.
