"Emerson Research also makes a "Smartset" clock radio which automatically sets itself. The time is pre-set at the factory and retained by a built-in battery. But the Smartset clock radio does not utilize WWVB and will not be exactly synchronized with the "atomic clock" unless the user manually corrects it (which is easy to do). While it is not "eactly" correct, the Smartset clock radio is still a good product and can adjust itself automatically for daylight saving time changes. Also, its price is usually lower than the price of the "Atomic Clock Radio" discussed here."
