National bureau of standards time and frequency services

Frequency and time signals from the National Bureau of Standards are widely used to calibrate electronic devices, perform navigation experiments such as vehicle location and for setting of digital clocks. This talk will review the presently available NBS services. The present status of WWV and WWVB will be discussed and new NBS services using television signals and a 468 MHz satellite will be described. Telephone accessible services for voice and computer time setting will also be included. A recently published NBS Technical note entitled "Time and Frequency User\´s Manual" will be made available free to conference attendees.
