Alex, I don't think it's possible. I have a couple of Oregon Scientific gadgets in BsAs (weather forcaster, wall clock), that have the ability to synchronize with the WWVB-60 signal from the atomic clock in Fort Collins, Colorado.

I never was able to get a signal, and according to the OS web site, you need to be within ~2000 miles of the transmitter. And as mentioned above, the clocks only have offsets for P, M, C and E times (the clocks can't synch in Hawaii, so need for HST). And of course daylight savings time is automatic ...

If you don't have the instruction manuals, you can get the pdf files from the OS web site.
