Like everyone in the world -- I hate setting and re-setting all of my clocks. Last Christmas -- I got an "Atomic Clock" -- ( $ 30 bucks at Target ). It monitors WWV and WWVH -- and checks the time once a day. You can select the time zone that you are in --. Well -- at 3 AM I decided to re-set my clock. WWV didn't send out the right codes. --- I selected "Mountain Time zone" and said to heck with it -- for at least the next few weeks. LOL

I have the same thing. Mine did not update either. I like you, decoded the same thing, let it ride for a couple o weeks untill the "real" daylight savings time begins.. LOL

We have four clocks and two watches that set by WWV in Colorado. Sunday morning one clock and one watch set correctly. The others did not set because of week signal. By the end of Sunday all had set correctly.

I just think you didn't receive the signal at a strong enough level to make the adjustment. I have owned these for several years, and rarely do they all make the adjustment on time. Try moving the clock to another location near a window to the east.

Last year it worked just fine -- both times, from the very same spot. I did move it -- and even took it outside -- but nothing. Time to get out that old sundial. LOL

Mine switched over no problem, but my cell phone still won't swich. I've got the "auto update" turned off for now.

I had to switch my 2 atomix wall clocks over by hand. I'm wondering if they will go back another hour in three weeks?

Two of my clocks updated from WWVB OK.
The other 3 were not getting a good signal and I will retry
again tonight and get back to the list.
