tower icon will not appear but reception will still be attempted the following hour.
WWVB time reception takes place from 12:00 am through 6:00 am each day (attempts WWVB
reception every full hour within this time frame). When the time signal is received for example at
1:00 am, the radio-controlled clock will not attempt to receive the WWVB signal for the
remaining hours until 6:00 am. Therefore, the next signal attempt will take place between 12:00
am and 6:00 am the next day. The other times WWVB reception takes place, are upon setup
and after manual time set exiting mode. Reception is generally not possible during daylight
hours due to the interference of the sun.
