[BC] Top of the hour Boing

WBBM's time tones on the hour and 1/2-hour are running about 8 seconds late
this morning, which I guess must be related to their reported HD startup.
They used to be dead on, as close as I could match them with an ear/eye
comparison to a radio controlled clock.

Richard -

You'd better get used to the network 'time-hacks' being off.  Here in 
Seattle those CBS Boings have been off for years with the station operating 
a naughty word delay for just as long.   We have an FM here that has now 
three delays operating - 1) HD Radio, 2) Naughty catcher # 1 and now 3) 
Naughty catcher # 2.   Geesh...There is enough time for the board op to go 
out and get a cup of coffee and get back before it runs out.    I am 
starting to believe that 'real time' radio is about to be a thing of the 
past.   Then again there is a lack of ability  of folks to read anything 
but a digital clock...but that's another story.
