Default OT radio time signal

Has anyone any knowledge of the UK radio time signal system? My son
bought me a watch last year which updates from the radio time signal.
It used to have an antenna symbol in the display to show it was
receiving. For some time now the symbol has been missing and the time
is slightly adrift by a few seconds when compared with other
standards.
As the rest of the functions seem ok has there been a change in the
transmitter?


Is it definitely using the UK MSF time signal?

The transmitter moved in April 2007.
It was at Rugby, it's now at Anthorn.

Does that correspond with your reception problems?
