        I've gone ahead and purchased a shortwave radio in case high
rates Sunday morning require 1-minute counts.  I'm not having any
trouble picking up WWV at night here in East GA esp. on the 10 and 15
mhz channels.  But there's a truely annoying
tone that develops immediately after the time signal tone.  It doesn't
go away until exactly 45 seconds elapse, then I get a crisp, clean
tick-tocking for five seconds before the next time increment in
announced.  Can anyone tell me if this is some problem I'm having at my
location or is this "normal?"
