I COULD NEVER COUNT THE NUMBER OF TIMES I ACCESSED WWV, THE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS TIME KEEPERS. WHEN I WAS AT MY INTERCEPT STATION MANY YEARS AGO, IT WAS MY CUSTOM AT THE BEGINNING OF MY "TRICK" TO DIAL UP WWV FOR THE EXACT TIME. I CAN STILL HEAR THOSE "CLICK CLICK CLICK" SOUNDS AND THE LITTLE "DING" AS THE TIME WAS AUDIBLY TRANSMITTED ALL OVER THE WORLD ON VARIOUS FREQUENCIES.I DON'T KNOW IF THE ARTICLE ACCOMPANYING THIS POST IS THE PREDECESSOR TO WWV AND WWVH, BUT I SUSPECT IT IS. PERHAPS SOMEONE MORE
KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN I CAN FILL IN THE DETAILS.
