	My 4 BPSK clocks updated just exactly as they are supposed
to - my wife was most amused to watch the process at 2 AM on the one
in her sewing room/home office.  She actually asked to be woken up
to see it.

	I'm pretty sure the SW in the clock needs only to get a valid 
message about the pending change time some point in advance ... but
those BPSK clocks work well in the Boston suburbs, which is not exactly
strong WWVB 60 KHz territory... though they are in a wood frame house and a
brick hospital office... not particularly magnetically shielded either
place.
