![]() Besides just tuning it in, I actually liked having it on while doing my homework! The steady pulses, curious patterns of tones, and old-timey timbre of the occasional voice announcements made for nice background noise. When conditions were good, sometimes I could also hear WWVH (Hawaii → Chicago is a bit of haul). It was one of the few stations that could nearly always be picked up on some frequency, even during poor propagation. I have fond memories of WWV being one of the first stations I picked up when I got my ham radio license many years ago. Fortunately the final NIST budget preserved the funding. WWV has operated continuously since 1919, but in 2019 its future was in doubt due to proposed budget cuts that could have shuttered the stations. These broadcasts contain an audible portion (which this site emulates), and a digital time code that can be received by clocks and watches for automatically maintaining precise time. ![]() The time sources are highly accurate atomic clocks. A companion station, WWVH, provides a similar service from Kekaha, HI. WWV is a radio station run by the National Institute of Standards and Technology ( NIST) that broadcasts precise time and frequency from Fort Collins, CO. It is not a rebroadcast of the real stations. This is only an simulation, using your computer’s time and samples of the audio. Station identification is every half hour. Each station has its own style of tones and voice time announcements. It should sound much like what you’d hear if you tuned in a shortwave radio to one of these stations. You can save time and have a visual aid of the current time to help you track how much time is left.This site attempts to simulate the audio portion of stations WWV and WWVH. Using this full-screen clock can help you if you are working in a classroom and want to show students the time in seconds, at work if you are running a group exercise in a meeting, or at home if you are exercising.
