DCF Type Receiver for the US (WWVB)

[Harry_Fish]

Is there a DCF Type receiver available (or plans to produce one) for the US?

I would assume it would use WWVB instead of DCF77.

Bump, I assume the Europeans have the option of adding this?

yes they do, part # PL-0014

I would hope that with the upcoming webserver feature a time server could be set and that would remove the DCF hardware from the equation.

Even without the web interface they could sync with a NTS when a NIC is available. It would not be extremely hard to code, but is probably not a very high priority in my opinion. They seem that have alot on their plate!

I guess by the silence this will proabably not be offered.

How many of you guys would order this receiver?

I need to know if it makes sense to produce it.

 

[kidney514]

I would probably be more logical to have NTS built in the device and buy a NIC instead of building a DFC hardware. Building a NTS would take a little bit of time and use hardware that already exist!

I would be interested in having auto-time set by either a DCF reciever or an NTS built into the controller software.

Whichever way is easier and less expensive.
