ABOUT RECEPTION OF RADIO SIGNAL
The BHM-612A is designed to automatically synchronize its
current time and date when within range of the U.S. Atomic
Clock.
When the unit is within range, its radio-control mechanism will
override all manual settings. The benefit of a RF controlled
clock is sustained accuracy without the need of manual adjustment.
Complete signal reception generally takes about 2 to 10 minutes,
depending on the strength of the radio signal. When the reception
is completed, the signal display will be stable. After that, the
periodical scanning will only take a few seconds.
For better reception of radio signals, place the clock away from
metal objects and electrical appliances to minimize interference.
