Wtf? What possible good could turning off WWVB do? Are we going to have to buy digital GPS-enabled wall-clocks because the Orange Menace isn't done taking a baseball bat to the china shop? Bloody hell. GPS does works, barely, inside given the right receiver and antenna combination... at least good enough for a time fix.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoThere was a project on HN sometime in the last year where someone was broadcasting the WWVB signal indoors at low power. It would be a loss for this station to go off the air, but unless you’re in a remote location with no internet connectivity to broadcast the time signal yourself at low power, the world will go on. https://hackaday.com/2014/03/22/build-your-own-radio-clock-transmitter/ https://hackaday.com/2014/03/22/build-your-own-radio-clock-t...
