Disclaimer: The Atomic Time Signal originates in Ft. Collins Colorado and has a range of
roughly 4800 kilometers (3000 miles). In some cases, the signal is aected by weather
conditions, geographic location. dwelling construction materials or electrical
interferences. The position of the station in the home may result in poor reception. If the
station has not synchronized to the correct time within a few days of activation, you may
need to move the station to a dierent location. It is best to position the station near an
exterior wall that faces toward Colorado. If the Atomic Time Signal is NOT received,
your station will still operate as a reliable accurate time keeper and should not be
considered broken.
