Default (OT?) 60kHz MSF Radio time signal

In article , Malcolm
Stewart scribeth thus
For quite a few years I've had reliable time around my home based on
domestic clocks using the Rugby 60kHz MSF transmitter. Last April the MSF
transmitter was moved to Cumbria, and since then I've noticed glitches in
the delivery of accurate time. e.g. This morning my lounge clock was
precisely1 hour ahead of correct time, and a few weeks ago only the seconds
figure was running correctly. A relative in the Huntingdon area has also
reported problems. (And we're not living in electrically screened
buildings - just normal bricks and mortar houses)

Just wondering how others are getting on? (Direct me if there's a better
newsgroup for this ...)

As an NPL time user there have been quite a few complaints from people
in built up areas of the south, whereas people north of the border
report better reception..

Which is hardly surprising!..
