alas, radio shack has discontinued their 'timecube' wwv recievers.

does anybody else carry these things? ( in the <$50 neighborhood.. )

can i replace the crystals in a 'weatheradio'?

while i'm here :-)  what's a simple/elegant/cheap way to automagically
synch a clock to the radio signal? ( one shot, i mean ) I suppose i need
to start with a narrow filter to listen for the tone. ( i just know
this has been a 'magazine' project someplace... )
