I still remember the WWV phone number from setting my watch to it for years and years. Still works!

(303)-499-7111

A little strange, since Ft. Collins is not in the 303 area code. It's in 970.

When I was a kid we could get a time hack from the phone company -- TI4-8900 (rotary phone). No area code (if you want long distance, call the operator).

It was a simple time, at 10 yo I could buy ammo for my .22LR Winchester Mod 52.

Phone numbers are good. . Here is hoping the cell phones work after the massive EMP event. . .


Of course, none of my pesky short wave radio's will work, nor will the WWV transmitter!

Well, Darn. . . Where is that Harrison H4?
