Is there a PCI card that would add a "radio clock" to a computer, i.e. a clock that updates its time from whatever radio source that such clocks use. (Perhaps today's clocks use GPS.)

I'd like to find such a card for some machines that aren't connected to a network. I know about "network time servers". They wouldn't be relevant unless there is some free wireless network that specializes in such broadcasts.

Its a German co. and I bet its very expensive. I found USB ones too, one for about 80 euros, but again German--couldn't find any in the US in a quick search. I did find some software to use a standard GPS through a serial port.
