Abstract: This report describes the design and construction of the National Bureau of Standards frequency-time broadcast station, WWV, located at Fort Collins, Colo. The principal function of the station, located 11.25 km (7 mi) north of Fort Collins, is to broadcast basic standards of frequency and time signals on frequencies of 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 MHz. These high-frequency transmissions, which can be received on the simplest of equipment, provide the necessary accuracy required to fill some of the needs of industry, Government and the public. The technical and administrative supervision of the station is under the Time and Frequency Division, Frequency-Time Broadcast Services Section, National Bureau of Standards, Boulder, CO 80302.
