Most of the "atomic clocks" update around midnight and don't try again for 24
hours or so, to save power the receiver is off most of the time. My spectracom
8165 needs hours of good signal to work. Except for good conditions it is rare
to keep tracking around local sun rise and sun set.

I receive the Japanese low frequency signal here in Tasmania. I get it
on a simple travel clock placed up high on a wooden bookshelf. Still
figuring out which times of the year are best.
