That would’ve been a locally controlled device in a phone central office near you. Ours was 774-9998 and the one at my grandparents house was 764-0105 I think. Both had different advertisement messages but the timekeepers voice was identical.

It varies. DST it’s slow. When it’s not DST its fast. Always by the same amount of time.

Just called from one of my phones. Rang forever. Called from the other and it answered immediately. Seems it has a mind of its own.

I’ve noticed recently it’s been ringing for about 20 seconds and then answers.

My clock does this! It’s always 10min 22sec off.

There’s also a number you can dial to get the time. I use it to make test calls to verify phones are working at work. (202)762-1401

My mom stuck me in agora for a single school year many years ago. I didn’t do a damn thing that whole year except scroll through the internet and sleep all day. Agora is absolutely useless for an actual education.
