WWVB time reception takes place from 12:00 am through 6:00 am each day (attempts WWVB
reception every full hour within this time frame). When the time signal is received for example at 1:00
am, the atomic clock will not attempt to receive the WWVB signal for the remaining hours until 6:00
am. Therefore, the next signal attempt will take place between 12:00 am and 6:00 am the next day.
The other times WWVB reception takes place, are upon setup and after manual time set exiting
mode. Reception is generally not possible during daylight hours due to the interference of the sun.
