Harvey,

I don't think streaming time signals would be very useful because of all the 
buffering that occurs during streaming.  Depending on your system, your ISP, 
and the amount of traffic on the site, you could experience delays of 
several seconds, which would defeat the purpose of the time signal.

Steve
