I am fortunate to have a Heathkit "Most accurate clock", which scans for 
WWV or  WWVH  on up to 3 frequencies (5, 10, 15 MHz), locks onto the 
strongest signal,  and decodes the time code.  It even has provisions 
for propagation delay offset (in milliseconds) depending on how far the 
user is from the transmitting station.


You just cannot believe how many guys try to convince me to sell it to 
them, but, it ain't going anyplace. It is at least 25 years old, 
probably closer to 30, but still runs great.  All that is required is 
the occasional touch-up of the PLL tuning, typically once every three or 
four years. .  Modern design could probably  remove that minor issue.


That would be a good project for the likes of Elecraft.   A truly useful 
station accessory, and a good candidate for a kit to keep the "gotta 
solder something" types happy.   An updated design should be easy.
