Sadly, WWVB is damaged. At midnight on April 7, 2024, WWVB's south antenna was disabled due to damage sustained during high winds. WWVB now broadcasts exclusively from the north antenna, at a reduced power of 30kW. This situation is expected to continue "indefinitely", presumably because of a lack of budget for repairs.
Update 20 May 2024: The components necessary for the refurbishment of the southern antenna’s triatic are currently being manufactured and shipped. The projected timeline for the completion of these repairs is tentatively set for the latter part of June 2024. We would like to emphasize that this is an estimated timeline and may be subject to alterations based on a variety of factors. We greatly appreciate your understanding and patience during this process.
