Hi, I think what is wanted is a program to tick off seconds, as accurately as possible, and probably announce the time every minute or so, though I'm not sure about this. I think the intended purpose is to synchronize standalone talking clocks/watches to the Linux box, rendered accurate via NTP. Obviously such clocks/watches have no means of synchronization to any accurate time source except by use of human effort. I know of a program that simulates the tone signals produced by WWV and WWVH. It simulates everything except the 100HZ digital time code, the double ticks to indicate the difference between UTC and UT1 or whatever it's called, and the voice announcements. Unfortunately, it runs on Windows, not Linux.
