Atomic radio control clocks are the most precise time keeping devices in the world. They keep time to the accuracy of more than 1 second in one million years. Until recently, the atomic clocks were only found in laboratories and special institutions and were very large and expensive. When various governments began to broadcast atomic, electronically encoded signals with their own national time, the accuracy of the atomic radio control clock became available to the general public. Recent technology enabled this process to be miniaturized and to be offered at a reasonable cost.
The Global Map Atomic Radio Controlled Clock takes it one step further. Until development of this type of clock, atomic clocks were able to receive and decode signals from only one transmitter. Clocks made to receive signals in Europe did not work in the USA or vice versa. A different clock was needed for each time signal. The Global Map Atomic Radio Controlled Clock changes it all. Besides being functional, compact and of sleek design, it is able to receive signals transmitted by the various governments’ locations in:
Fort Collins, Colorado which covers all 4 zones in the continental USA.
Rugby, UK, which covers all of UK
Near Frankfurt, Germany, which covers most of Western and some of Central Europe
Kyushu Island, Japan, which covers most parts of Japan and parts of Korea
