I was wondering when someone would post this method. If a service monitor is used and you want to use wwv then all you have to do is hook it up to an outside antenna and tune it to the highest wwv frequency you can hear. Measuer the frequency directly and watch the meter on the monitor and adjust the master oscillator directly. . Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to http://docs.yahoo.com/info/terms/
