I used to hear WWVH in Newfoundland and in Alberta. I tried to visit the station in Kauai but that was soon after 9/11 so a visit wasn't going to happen. It is a lovely island, and since I don't like the crowds of the usual tourist spots it suited me just fine. Your discriptions bring back fond memories.

Thank you for this. It's a somewhat rare treat to hear wwvh when I've tried for the last 25 years in Texas. I even have a video of receiving it from 8 years ago on my channel. I don't think I've ever heard it on 2.5mhz or 5mhz, but I dont try that often. Good to see qsls are answered too, I'll have to let my kids do that the next time I can hear it.

I love to hear Jane's voice

The original that Siri ripped off. 😂

That was very nice. I am in Western NY and have been listing to WWV/WWVB/WWVH and CHU for many years. setting my clocks and radio dials . at night 2.5 MHZ WWVH comes in strong hear. very happy about HamSCI . love the 25 MHz WWV being back on. So happy a HAM WD8DAS Steve is the engineer of the station.

I just stumbled across 25 MHz WWV this morning! (Tuning up above 12 meter ham band.)

WWV gave tours before hams took it over.

Fascinating stuff!! Thanks for uploading this

Thanks for a fun and informative video. I called WWVH on my mobile phone just for fun.

Thank you. Even interresting for me in Europe.

Thanks for the video. Very interesting presentation...

Thank you kind sir for an interesting and informative video. Been dialing boulder co since discovering the service. We had a short wave receiver in the met lab of the aircraft carrier I was stationed on in 1968-69. Would call 303 when I returned to home from Navy, even when had to pay toll charges. Ended up with Southwestern Bell nee AT&T 43 years (for my sins). 😉 Still do call. Will give you some of my business. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful! I hear WWVH occasionally here in the midwestern U.S.A. Fun video. I've listened to "The Tick" since I was a boy and learned to tweak the oscillator in my Truetone transistor to pick up 2.5 MHZ. Don't believe I heard WWVH on that set!

This will be great ! I have fond memories of listening to shortwave radio in middle school and high school.

I lived on Maui for 4 years and drove by the old WWVH site a couple times a week. It's now a beach park I think.

DE G8WOF. Thank you for a very interesting and pleasant presentation, it is good to hear stories about events relating to WWV and yourself. QTH is Wirral near Liverpool United Kingdom. 73's K

Outstanding material and presentation. It amazes me how the government throws money at one project and other seemingly important agencies barely scrape by. I’ve heard stories about taking surplus gear and rebuilding it to keep places like this up and running. I can imagine the amount of corrosion the station would have being that close to the ocean. Something always needs attention every week. Keeps you busy I guess. Thanks for posting the video.

Love the new AWA intro to Steve's presentation. Also appreciate the prompt posting of this on KZread. Unfortunately the Wednesday 8PM Eastern time slot is used by at least another group with radio technology history themes. It is always a plus to attend a presentation live but comforting to know there are provisions for recorded backup.

Thank you interesting, I bet we cant vise the station. my QSL in 1957 from Lake Forest IL listing to WWV trying to set the secant hand on my telecron clock then here WWVB was exciting.

I love NIST and it's cesium beam clock..

0:02 Haven’t heard that sound in a very long… time.

As I was watching I was wondering if I could swing by for a visit... But I was discouraged when the armed guards were mentioned!

Thanks!

Greetings from Cape Town. Question. How is interference avoided if WWV and WWVH transmit on the same frequencies?

I have been on Barking Sands Missal range and no idea WWVH was anywhere near. how protected is wwvh to hemp's thanks for the video.

Is JJY still on the air?

Great background and history. Thank you. BTW, I also did a phone time check. Jon - N5WXZ
