it doesn't.  ... would be trivial to change if that is an issue for you ...

Apparently, the targeted server (time-a.timefreq.blrddoc.gov) decided to 
be fully compliant and stop answering to incorrect tcp ports.  I had a 
time askew adjustment while fixing; so, I can't tell you whether it took

svn update and report if your morning-time announcements continue their 
monotony.
