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 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.

Re: Sipbroker (or similar) US Central Time talking clock

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.
