Atomic Clock
The clock automatically synchronizes itself with the cesium-atom clock maintained by the US Commerce Department in Colorado. Several times each day, the clock receives a radio signal and adjusts itself accordingly to split-second accuracy of up to 4 billionths of a second. The clock works normally even when the radio signal is not available due to atmospheric conditions, or distance from Colorado. the signal has an expected range of over 3,000 miles (particularly at night), meaning that the signal can be received in most North american locations.
