About the Radio – Controlled Clock (RCC)
The National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) in Fort Collins, Colorado broadcasts
the time signal (WWVB at 60kHz AM radio signal) with an accuracy of 1 second per every
3,000 years. The signal will be able to cover over a distance up to 2,000 miles from the
source. Like a typical AM radio, your RCC will not be able to receive the WWVB signal in places
surrounded by heavy concrete or metal panels. The reception of the time signal is also greatly
affected by electrical or electronic interference. To get the best performance of the RCC clock,
please install the clock nearer to a window and change directions is one direction does not
work. Refer to the “reception” section of the instruction s to ensure the correct installation and
the best reception.
