MSF RECEPTION DIFFICULTIES
Like any receiver your clock needs a good signal to work properly. The main
causes of reception failure are...
Atmospheric and local interferences.
Interference from electrical equipment e.g. TV, computers or radios.
Location of the clocks internal receiver within the building.
Reduced local signal due to steel framed structure.
Outside the normal transmission.
Try moving your clock to a new location away from any electrical equipment e.g.
TV, computer or radios, and start the set up again or remove the battery/ies and
insert again after 5.30pm. Due to local interference the signal is stronger between
midnight & 5am.
