Re: Sipbroker (or similar) US Central Time talking clock
Most that I found were 976 numbers that do not work from VoIP, but I did find one in Morris, IL that works:
First Midwest Bank, NA time and temperature announcement:
815-942-6900
Here is another in McHenry, IL:
815-385-9400
Both announcements are Central Time. |

Milwaukee, WI | Milwaukee also has 414-844-1414.
Unfortunately none of those PSTN services are free for me.
I was looking for something like FWD's "612".
Thanks for the reply nonetheless. |

| I use both the short wave NIST stations which are "talking" but of course give out the time in (UTC) universal time. Also, I use the NIST HI, CO and the Naval DC PSTN numbers which are not toll free.
Also, I use the following NIST web site which is NOT talking but very accurate. There is some delay over phone lines and the internet:
»www.time.gov/timezone.cgi?Eastern/d/-5/java
You can change the setting to Central Time as I have it set for Eastern.
Hopefully another forum member will have what you need. |
