[time-nuts] Re: SDR radios - Loran-C & WWV

[KevinC]

I have an SDR RSPdx and can easily tune in the 5MHz, 10MHz, and 15MHz 
WWV signals - although to my surprise, seldom all 3 at once.  Generally 
one is strong, another is so-so, and the 3rd is lost to background 
noise.  I do have a pretty simple long-wire antenna feeding the SDR, so 
noise is always an issue.  In any case, no problem HEARING the time 
announced "... at the tone, the time is...", but no way to export that 
information that I'm aware of.

FYI - I heard Trump wants to kill support for WWV in favor of GSM 
solutions as a federal cost saving thing.  My 50+ year old Heathkit 
GC-1000 will become useless if he does - but so far keeps running fine 
(now that I'm feeding it 12V power - lost the AC power supply during the 
last long power outage over the winter).
