Default Radio controlled clock question

I've got one of those radio clocks sitting on my desk. Every so
often the receiving signal flashes for a period of time when it
updates itself. I don't have a problem with the clock being wrong.



Are you sure it's been able to reset itself during the day, today?

As noted in my other posts, the NPL site says the Rugby transmitter is
on annual maintenance from 6 to 20 October, with signal transmission
probably out from 9 am to 9 pm. (There's an indicator on my clock that
shows if the hourly update was successful, and if not how many hours
it's been since the last update was made: that's now sitting at 8 hours
missed, and since it's currently 17:30, it must have last updated at 8
am, in line with what the NPL site says.)
