The author is manager of National Institute of Standards and Technology radio stations WWV/WWVH/WWVB. While radio station WWVB may be familiar to readers of this publication, most people would not ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is changing the way it broadcasts time signals that synchronize radio-controlled "atomic" clocks and watches to official U.S. time in ways ...

NIST radio station WWVB(AM) is trying to improve its signal penetration. The station near Fort Collins, Colo. continuously broadcasts time and frequency signals at 60 kHz. The carrier frequency ...

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) broadcasts atomic clock time signals from Fort Collins, Colorado on various frequencies. The WWVB signal on 60 kHz blasts out 70,000 watts ...

The project utilizes a PIC16F628 microcontroller in order to create radio controlled clock that originates from NIST Radio Station WWVB that broadcasts on a frequency of 60kHz. The project utilizes a ...

Time might be running out for America’s timekeeper. Proposed budget cuts could silence radio stations operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, or NIST, north of Fort Collins ...

Yes, that is not a mistake. It is 60 kiloHertz not 60 MHz or 60 GHz. There actually is wireless activity at that frequency—at least in the U.S. Specifically, the time standard station WWVB, located ...
