There is a company out here in California that has a unit which has a 
RS-232 port and gets its information direct from WWV, (price ~$500.00).
(more for a large computer room then a small office)

There is also another company that will be making a PC board which will
have the WWV RF interface. All you do is plug it into the PC and with
the software be able to get the WWV information.

Both system uses a SMALL di-pole (~2 ft in length).


I'm not sure of what their names are but if you want I will find out
from my friend the name and the phone numbers.
