   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_clock

   Radio clock. A modern LF radio-controlled clock. A radio clock or radio-controlled clock (RCC), and often colloquially (and incorrectly [1]) referred to as an "atomic clock", is a type of quartz clock or watch that is automatically synchronized to a time code transmitted by a radio transmitter connected to a time standard such as an atomic clock.

3. Casio Wave Ceptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casio_Wave_Ceptor

   The Wave Ceptor series (stylized as WAVE CEPTOR or WaveCeptor) is a line of radio-controlled watches by Casio. Wave Ceptor watches synchronise with radio time signals broadcast by various government time services around the world. These signals transmit the time measured by atomic clocks accurate to one second in millions of years.

4. WWVB - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWVB

   WWVB is a time signal radio station near Fort Collins, Colorado and is operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). [ 1] Most radio-controlled clocks in North America [ 2] use WWVB's transmissions to set the correct time. The normal signal transmitted from WWVB is 70 kW ERP and uses a 60 kHz carrier wave yielding a ...

6. Time signal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_signal

   Radio time signal stations broadcast the time in both audible and machine-readable time code form that can be used as references for radio clocks and radio-controlled watches. Typically, they use a national or regional longwave digital signal; for example, station WWVB in the U.S. . [13]

7. Master clock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_clock

   The master clock (bottom center), controlled by a temperature-compensated mercury pendulum, is wired to slave clocks throughout the building. In addition to wall clocks, it also controls time stamps that are used to stamp documents with the time, and a turret clock used in a clock tower. The "program clock" is a timer that can be programmed ...
