Interference can come from unexpected sources. For a couple of months I was cursing an on-off wide band noise that extended from VLF to about 5 MHz. I started tracing it with a transistor radio and found it was coming from a battery charger in my own woodworking shop. Now I turn off that plug
strip unless I am actually charging a battery.

Regards.

Hi

Some of these clocks and watches seem to like midnight as the magic time to
synchronize. That's certainly what the Casio's do.

True but not during the day. I don't seem to have trouble with MSF. But at
night I do.
So the old sharp did sync last night. Hmmm a local event or fresh
batteries. I know I have added a new switching power supply for my tablet.
Hmmmmmmmm

Hi

The other half of the equation is 60KHz interference from MSF. Winter
propagation may favor them.
