NTP shouldn't be needed:  The computer could simply decode the new WWVB
signal and use the decoded bits to predict what the future bits will be.

If you use a technique similar to the "disprove" method I used for
DCF77 in NTPns, you will get very fast convergence, even if you don't
know all the individual bits yet.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
