A relay device (30) receives a standard radio wave transmitted from a
transmitting station (10) and containing time data, i.e. a time code. The
device (30) transmits a relayed radio wave containing the time code
received, at a first intensity. When the device (30) receives a
transmission command code transmitted from a time-data receiving
apparatus (50), it transmits the relayed radio wave for a predetermined
time (10 minutes) at a second intensity that is lower than the first
intensity. When a time-correction switch is operated, the time-data
receiving apparatus (50) transmits a transmission command code to the
relay device (30). The time-data receiving apparatus (50) receives the
relayed radio wave transmitted at the second intensity from the relay
device (30) in response to the command code and corrects the time on the
basis of the time code it has received.
