ITWYM is digital is behind analogue.

There is more delay between your loudspeaker and ear when listening to
pips than over an entire analogue chain. That isn't instantaneous, but is

It used to be said that the GTS emanating from Droitwich is accurate

precisely that distance away as the RF flies.

I Doubt if this will increase the value of my house much though.
