Besides Heathkit's "Most Accurate Clock" are there any other sources for a device that receives WWV/WWVH broadcasts are translates it into a readable form? I know that Radio Shack sells a receiver that picks up the voice broadcasts of WWV/WWVH but they don't sell one that displays the broadcast time. Kenneth H.

There are other "radio clocks", but as far as I know they will all get you into the "lab instrument" category... If you've got $K to spend look in the EEM, Goldbook or other likely equipment directory. The Heath clock isn't bad for what it is, though it's only available in kit form these days, and while the Radio Shack thing is toylike, adding a filter/tone detector can generate usable time ticks/pulse codes. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)
