It's a clock that is synced with a service that tells time based on the movement of an atom.
Homedics SS-5000 Sound Spa Premier AM/FM Atomic Clock Radio is very acurate.
Atomic watches receive time information via radio from one of a number of atomic clocks, making them as accurate as said clock within radio range.
One can purchase a used atomic clock radio online. Some of the useful websites are Nextag, Amazon, eBay, Best Buy, Joe Jaworski, Tinmark and Overstock.
The wave button on an atomic clock is typically used to manually synchronize the clock with the atomic time signal broadcasted by radio transmitters. By pressing the wave button, the clock will attempt to receive the time signal and adjust its time accordingly for accuracy.
Yes the Timex Solar-Powered Radio-Controlled Atomic Alarm Clock T065.
The iHome iP9SR is atomic, and looks great sitting up on a wall.
First of all, there is no "the atomic clock," the timing signal your receive is actually comprised of data from many atomic clocks. A radio signal is generated by NIST in Colorado, partly because a portion of NIST is located in Colorado. Having a more-or-less centrally located radio source maximizes radio coverage in the continental US. There is also an atomic clock ensemble at the US Naval Observatory in Washington DC, which is the timing source for the Department of Defense.
Yes, La Crosse Wall Clocks with atomic time feature receive a radio signal originating from an atomic clock, ensuring accurate timekeeping by automatically adjusting for daylight saving time and other time changes.

No.A "radio alarm clock" is a radio ... which you can use to lull yourself to sleep ... that has abuilt-in alarm, which you can set to wake you in the morning, either by turning the radioback on, or by blasting you awake with an annoying buzz that will ruin your whole day.A so-called "radio controlled" alarm clock ... sometimes advertised as an "atomic" clock ... isa clock that actually has a radio receiver built into it, which receives the NIST standard timesignals from Fort Collins, Colorado, and automatically keeps itself set to precisely exactlythe correct time.
Radio controlled watches are watches that synchronize their time with an atomic clock or GPS. Casio, Seiko, and Citizen have radio synchronized watch models.
The Casio Pathfinder atomic timekeeping fuction uses radio frequencies to synch itself with the U.S. radio controlled clock operated by the NIST located in Colorado.
