'...Propogation: Sound waves are longitudinal, meaning that the vibrations occur parallel to the direction of propogation (travel). Electromagnetic waves are transverse, meaning that the vibrations occur perpendicular to the direction of propogation.Medium: Sound waves are physical, so the oscillations are formed from vibrating solid liquid or gas, so require a medium to travel through. Electromagnetic waves cause oscillations in electric and magnetic fields, so do not require a medium.Speed: Sound waves travel at about 300 m/s (but is dependent on the medium) , whereas Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light, i.e. around 300,000,000 m/s...' www.mytutor.co.uk/answers/42240/GCSE/Physics/What-are-the-differences-between-sound-waves-and-electromagnetic-waves/

WOW! I cant believe I set my time using MultiBand 6 on my MudMaster sitting in Coimbatore!! Big thanks to you!!!

[@LordTechPro]

You're welcome! I too can't believe that I set the time on my Mudmaster through Multi Band 6 outside the radio wave tower coverage!

[@nikaiitrk]

Bro I am from Tamilnadu too plz help

[@dasbabu7261]

How to do this, I am from Delhi India I have a rangeman shall I select tokyo as city and update the time will it affect my home city time as well

[@kingpin2105]

Why it's giving me only tokyo time now 😢 It won't sync to be my local time.

[@LordTechPro]

Where do you live? I used Tokyo time only as an example for this video since where I stay, there is no MultiBand6 coverage.

[@icychap]

Amazing, this worked! The key was finding the right position for my phone/watch. For the GWG-2000, this was the case back around the words "tough solar." Good luck!

[@LordTechPro]

You're welcome! How's your experience with the GWG-2000 been?

[@icychap]

@@LordTechPro It's truly monstrous - I only use it for backcountry pursuits such as climbing/hiking/canoeing. As a result it generally sits on a side table near a window as some bizarre techy-looking ornament. On wrist, it's amazingly light and comfortable despite the gargantuan size, and I was surprised by how easily I forget that I'm wearing it. The functions are cool in theory but the only only one I have actually used to any effect is the altimeter. It was a purpose-driven purchase, and with that in mind I am very pleased! Thanks again for your channel and helpful content.

thanks man , i just used auto time zone ,it worked perfeclty .Just leave the watch in some corner with the phone near it for 3 -5 minutes and its done .Also i would prefer land and drive all the interesting cars left back

Hello can I do a manual reception for the riseman that’s a G-SHOCK 9200??? I do have the app I do have many other G-SHOCK‘s but I can’t seem to get the Raisman in manual mode!!

[@LordTechPro]

Yes you can, you should go through the user manual for the Riseman GW9200-1 here: support.casio.com/storage/en/manual/pdf/EN/009/qw3147.pdf. If you need the user manuals for any other Casio timepiece or G-SHOCK you own you can find them here: support.casio.com/en/manual/manuallist.php?cid=009

[@r1cpac]

I just tried this with my iP13P and GW-A1100-1ADR but can't get it to work... is there a particular position that I need to be aware of ? Or just bring the speakers closer to the 12 o'clock ? I've also already maxed out the volume too. But I did miss the part where you have to select the tower based on your home city... mine's HKG but set the tower to JPN/Fukuoka... will try again later.

[@LordTechPro]

You answered the question. Set both the home city to one supported or covered by the tower, else it will not work

[@UnosofManila]

I stay in Tokyo or Manila, which both receive radio signals but syncing isn't as consistent as with G-Shocks with bluetooth. Sometimes the watch doesn't receive the for months. I wish there is a way to automatically do the syncing of my Multiband-6 watches at night with the app as I own several G-Shocks with Multiband-6. Even if I try to automate running the app at a specific time, the phone has to be near the watches. Plus the sound could be annoying at night😂

[@LordTechPro]

That's interesting, I am not sure how radio waves of MultiBand 6 are replicated using the phone's speakers but I am almost sure the sound is just to make it sound cool and the real signals being transmitted to the watches are at a frequency which is either above or below the traditional frequency range of the human ear. Newer G-SHOCKs have Bluetooth too which means your watch can sync to your phone automatically.

[@RostonMathias]

Awesome it worked for my mud master 👍👍👍

[@LordTechPro]

You're welcome, I came across this app while I was searching for ways in which I could connect my phone to my Mudmaster, glad that I could help 👍👍👍

outstanding editing lord tech pro

[@LordTechPro]

Thanks a lot for your support Sushanth Reddy, somehow your comment ended up in the "spam" section (probably because you comment on all my videos immediately after I upload them, that's down to KZbin's algorithms)

[@kitasaunders]

I'm in the UK and my mudmaster GWG 2000 updated this morning at 5am with level 3. However, it is still 4 seconds behind my note 9. If I force sync it manually to the app, will it not change again on the next auto sync happens 🤔

[@LordTechPro]

Maybe you could try using another phone? Or try another similar app first, it might help

[@emdblyou]

I’ll try again later. It got to L3 and switched a few times between L2 and L3 but still failed. It tried for 3-5 minutes. Casio GWM5610U

[@LordTechPro]

Thanks for watching! You needn’t use this exact app, there are also apps like “Clock Wave” and “WatchWave” which work the exact same way, but they are paid. I used this app because it has a free trial period, and I am in no way affiliated with any of these apps, and using them is at your own discretion.

[@emdblyou]

@@LordTechPro I used the same app as you. Don’t really want to try another paid app especially if it doesn’t work haha

Hello there.. i want to ask you..are all rangeman GPR B1000 made in japan? Or they been made in somewhere else like thailand or malaysia?

[@LordTechPro]

Hello, all Rangeman GPR-B1000 are made exclusively in Japan

[@ismargz3043]

The conection is to a real multiband or a simulation of the real one?

[@LordTechPro]

What do you mean? This is real and it works, the only difference is that it uses sound waves and it isn't automatic (you need to start the reception manually)

[@TevfikFikretBakan]

Radio Wave Sync works with iPhone SE (2020) iOS 15.3.1 and iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPad Pro (Gen 1) iOS 15.3.1.. You have to hear a weird async ticking sound. The process takes more than 10 minutes (be patient). Thank you.

[@LordTechPro]

You’re welcome, however be advised that I am in no way affiliated with the aforementioned apps and any problems that may occur are at your own risk

[@marcusbarnes5929]

You don't need to change the time zone on the phone , only the timezone on watch need to change to Tokyo to use this app then once completed reset your timzone.

[@LordTechPro]

If the timezone on your phone and the timezone on the watch don't match your World Time will be out of sync. Sure you need not change the timezone on the phone, but now your watch is showing the correct time, but for the wrong time zone (provided you are not in Tokyo, Japan).

[@marcusbarnes5929]

@LordTechPro I use the app to use the Japan frequncy tower. I see the watch the Japan. The watch syncs with app perfectly after about 5 mins to japan time. Then set watch back to Sydney and the time is spot on.

[@Carl-Camera]

You do otherwise TYO timezone will be synced to local (SYD) time. You can leave it sure but then all your other world time zones will be out.

[@marcusbarnes5929]

​@carlca I think the app actually sinks time to Sydeney now and don't have to swap to Tokyo anymore.. All world times are correct.

[@Carl-Camera]

@marcusbarnes5929 Thanks! I saw that option in the “Clock Wave” app but that’s cool if “Radio Wave Sync” does the time zone correction behind the scenes 👍

[@michaelagus7596]

My gwg 1000 manual RC wont work for some reason. Do you have any idea why? Im in BKK timezone.

[@michaelagus7596]

Ive also swithed the city to TYO, the manual RC still wont work even though i hold the bottom roght corner for 5 sec

[@LordTechPro]

Switch the home time to Tokyo on your GWG-1000 and your phone. Then manually set the home time back to BKK

[@LordTechPro]

@@michaelagus7596 Switch the home time on your phone and G-SHOCK to TYO and choose one of the two TYO towers on whichever app you wish to use

[@LordTechPro]

Yes, I kind of do have the G-Shock life (not all the time but occasionally). The Mudmaster in this video has been used in Mud and sand for quite a few times. The case back has been scratched but the sapphire crystal on the front is still in pristine form

[@Spectre.007]

Is it possible to sync if your not in the coverage area?

[@LordTechPro]

Yes! That is the whole point of this video. Follow the steps which I have mentioned in the video. First download any Radio Wave Time Synchronisation app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, then just change the home city on both your watch and your phone to one which is in the coverage area (for example: Tokyo). Then you can sync the time on your phone with the time on your watch, forth which simply change the home city back to the one your time zone utilises. This will update all time and date settings on your Multi Band 6 enabled Casio watch.

[@Spectre.007]

@@LordTechPro My citizen got a sync using DCF77 but it made the London time 2hrs behind the correct time.

[@LordTechPro]

@@Spectre.007 Which home city is your watch set to? Even your phone should be set to the same home city, and the correct Base Tower should be selected. If you mean to say that your Citizen watch automatically received a signal, from a Atomic Radio Wave Time Base Station, I don't know what I can do. I only have Casio G-SHOCKs with Multi Band 6

[@TheSamuraiRonin]

I did it once back in November 2020. I tried so hard but it wouldn't go to receiving mode now. Turns out you need to change city 😒 silly gshocks... GWN-1000.

[@LordTechPro]

G-SHOCKs aren't silly, you need to select the proper watch home city city and phone base station, because it replicates the communication between a real atomic base station and the watch. If you don't sync the home city on the watch and your phone, it obviously will not work

[@TheSamuraiRonin]

@@LordTechPro for not enabling sync on all cities. But few only. Manual sync should be, well, manual.

[@LordTechPro]

@@TheSamuraiRonin You can conduct manual syncs, just head over to the R/C mode and conduct a manual time sync. Some G-SHOCKs such as the GW-A1100 (the full analogue Gravitymaster in this video) have a single button manual time sync option. The reason for not allowing manual sync on all cities is because there are only 5 Multi Band 6 or Atomic Radio Wave Time Sync Stations in the world, and each of them utilise slightly or vastly different means of communication with Atomic timepieces. So for example, if you set your G-SHOCK's home city to Tokyo it will only listen for the 2 JJY Atomic Radio Wave towers, this process uses less battery and is quicker because the watch does not have to switch modes or listen for each and every Atomic Radio Wave base station. This also prevents the watch from getting confused, because depending on where you live, if there is clear weather and minimal obstruction between you and the path to 2 towers from different time zones (which is very likely if you live in Japan), the watch could receive time and date information from a different time zone. Therefore, "true" manual sync cannot (and should not) be enabled because it needlessly complicates the procedure and can lead to the wrong time and date being synced with your G-SHOCK
