alt Hacker NewsThis is pretty darn cool, but I have to say I was somewhat let down by the WWVB signal. I was expecting the entire audible range instead of simply the extracted data. That being said, that's also really darn cool.
I find the WWV/WWVB droning soothing somehow.

Err… WWVB has no audio range. The carrier frequency is only 60 kHz. It’s effectively a CW signal since the amplitude is only modulated once per second.

Here's an emulation of WWV I did with a transmit capable SDR.

Me too. I had a Hallicrafter S-38 as a kid and used fall asleep by WWV & CHU. It felt like a private space that only nerds could find.
