    Hi

    One of the  nice things about SDR is that it's practical to
    receive *both* the Russian and US stations at the same time. Very
    cool ....

    And if you are in Europe you could take advantage from the
    Russian stations RWN, located at 4,996 kHz, 9,996 kHz and 14,996 kHz.
    They alternate periods with one-second clicks with periods of
    silence, with periods with 1/10th of a second clicks.
    And depending on the hour and the propagation maybe you are able
    to receive one or another or all three of them.
    They have the customary Caesium precision, accuracy and stability.

If you tune your LO in between both, say, 14998 for WWV/WWVH and RWN on 14996...

That's one way that comes to my mind. Another is that tuning to a side you have both on the spectrum, separated by 4 kHz.

Not too good for requency reference, but might allow to compare time standards and propagation delay.

PS: You guys are fortunate "in the middle of the world" emerged land, you can enjoy fairly good signals from both east and west. On this side of the world, the Pacific Ocean is too wide to the west to hear much with so bad propagation nowadays.
