Good job |
| S5-1001 |
Thanks for this service. |

I do hope that the web service remains free. I am unsure but I hope that somehow my taxes support this
service. |

Thank you for continuing to provide this service! |

remember KISS: all I need from these pages is the time. |

The WWV Shortwave Time and Frequency broadcasts are an
essential service to our operations.
They provide ready availability from any field location time and
frequency reference information. |

I am only familiar with the time service. I was not aware the others were offered.
I will check into them further now that I know they are available. |

15 MHz WWV and WWVH signals are the only time and frequency
standards that can be received on most HF amateur radio transceivers (even
very old transceivers that are still in use usually have a frequency band
marked for the prime purpose of receiving the 15.000 MHz transmissions and
using this to calibrate the transmitter frequency). |
| S5-1043 |
Thanks for being there for us.
I always used the radio service until I discovered your web site. |
| S5-1044 |
I have been using WWV for as long as I can remember as both
time and frequency standard. keep up the excellent work! |
| S5-1045 |
I am not clear on the difference between the internet time
service and the web page. I
go to the web site with the java animation for the time.
That is all. I look at
the java animation of the time and then set my computer's clock. |

"from Omaha, NE, USA" |
| S5-1056 |
Wonderful service WWV provides. Wish could get illegal
stations off your 10MHz frequency. |
| S5-1057 |
We would be very disappointed if ANY changes were made to
reduce the quality of HF service. Considerable reliance is placed on the
frequency standard for maintaining FCC compliance with ALL of our FCC
licensed transmitters...from wireless mics to high powered DTV
transmitters. Considerable amounts of capital would be needed to replace
ANY loss of NIST HF service that we utilize. |

Very informative and interesting. Thank You very much. |

"WWVB seems to be weakest service (I have gone three days without being able to synch watch

"In the Chicago area, much interference is heard on
2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 15.0 MHz. An increase in signal would be benificial. A
short wave broadcaster reported to be on 5.005 MHz from Garland Texas
constantly steps on 5.0 Mhz overriding the audio and 100 Hz subcarrier
with their programing. Elimination of this station would be desireable." |

"Hey, under 'user data', I use it for a lot more than
the two choices. Since you said """"only indicate your

rather than 'radio buttons', you are sending conflicting information that
may skew the results of your survey. If you want a single
<<use>>, use radio buttons. If you want multiple <<useS>>,
then what you have is OK, <<BUT>> you ought to change the
