Reading all of this brings back memories of a project I was involved in back in 
the early 70's in the Denver area.  NBS-Boulder was experimenting with 
injecting their time standard into the video of the analog signal before it hit 
the transmitter.  We installed a prototype unit that was slaved to Boulder and 
performed the function of adding the time signal into the video.  Part of it 
also provided station sync slaved to the unit as well.  NBS then measured the 
system prop delay and adjusted the timing accordingly to compensate for any 
latency before it went to RF.  The experiment lasted for a couple of months and 
then the equipment was removed.

Alas... satellites and digital...  given buffering, processing and routing 
delays, you are sort of now on your own in this one-bit world.
