Radio Controlled MSF Transmitter Service Interruption

We've just received the following message from the National Physics Laboratory, which transmit the UK time to all MSF Radio Controlled Wall Clocks in the Country:

"Can you please read the email below and let your customers/staff know that the National Physical Laboratory have planned maintenance between now and the 6th April which will result in a very limited service for the Radio Controlled Time Signal.

Customers with new purchases of radio controlled clocks should set them in the late afternoon so they van receive the signal overnight if the transmitter is switched back on. Note if the clock does not set overnight they should remove the battery and try again the following evening. If the battery is left in the clock and no signal is received for a prolonged period then the clock switches into hibernation mode to conserve battery life. At this point the only way to then receive the signal is to reset the clock.

For existing customers, the clocks will continue to work as quartz clocks, but the accuracy may suffer as they will not be able to synchronise with the transmitter."

The full announcement is as follows:

Notice of Interruption to MSF 60 kHz Time and Frequency Signal

Please note that the MSF 60 kHz time and frequency signal broadcast from Anthorn Radio Station will be shut down over the period:

08:00 UTC on Monday 26 March
until
20:00 UTC on Friday 6 April

The interruption to the transmission is required to allow maintenance work to be carried out in safety.
The service may be off-air continuously during this period, but will be restored overnight and at the weekend whenever possible.
