There has been times in the past where I needed to make broadcast
off-air recording that needed positive time indication. In those
cases I would record the station's audio on one track and one of the
WWV's on the other. I would start my recording early or let it run
past the end of the program in order to get the top of the minute
announcement of the time. For my needs this was more than adequate,
as it didn't require anything more than a stereo playback
contraption, and who could argue with the time!
