Possible cause and Solution
If the radio is being powered by batteries only, check
them and replace if necessary.
Poor reception of the NIST signal. The NIST antenna
is located inside the radio.  If your radio is being used
on a desk or table top, try rotating it 90 degrees. If your
is mounted to the wall, try mounting it on a wall
perpendicular to the one it is currently on (e.g. if it is on
a north-south wall try an east-west wall).
Other devices maybe causing interference. Locate the
clock at least 3 to 6 feet away from any computer
monitors, which can cause interference (some
monitors have a scan frequency at or near the WWVB
carrier frequency of 60 kHz).
If nothing else works, take the clock outdoors at night
and power it down (remove the batteries and unplug
it), then power it up again to force it to look for the
WWVB signal. If it works outdoors but not indoors, you
probably have a local interference problem inside your
house or building.
Remember, minutes and seconds are the same in all
time zones, only hours are different. If your clock is off
by one or more hours, it probably has to do with a time
zone setting.
If you live in an area that does not observe Daylight
Saving Time (Arizona, Hawaii, parts of Indiana), make
sure that Daylight Saving is set to OFF.
Make sure you have properly set your time zone as
described in Setting the Clock Calendar on page 12.
