As a former SWL junkie, I've practically got 'em memorized:

WWV broadcasts on 2.5, 5, 10, 15, and 20 MHz as I recall; as an
interesting sidelight, their sister station WWVH is on most of the
same frequencies.  At the right time of year/day on the right frequency
they make interesting harmonics together.


[Moderator's Note: Interference between WWV in Boulder, CO and WWVH in
Hawaii is common in the western United States. Usually the two
stations transmit a tone with the ticking except for the times they
make announcements. But during the time one station is making
announcements the other side silences the tone. Please note also the
lady on WWVH announces the time at about 45 seconds; WWV comes in
rightr behind her and announces the time at about 53 seconds; both
beep together on the minute. That delay keeps them from walking on
each other.  PAT]
