The signal now comes from Cumbria which according to my geography is the north west not the north east. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Sharpe" <w.sharpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I've just checked out the alarm on the radio controlled clock.  It gives a
couple of little beeps and then speaks the time.  This apparently goes on
for five minutes unless you stop it with the button on the top of the clock. Unless you have the clock very close to you, this might be rather too quiet 
if you are sound asleep.

The atomic clock which controls this one has moved from Rugby to somewhere
in the north-east, I think. It picks up the signal ok in my area, but I am 
on high ground, which might make a difference.  Placing the clock near a
window might do the trick.  Certainly it shouldn't be placed near any
electrical equipment (computer, TV, etc) which might interfere with the
signal.

Yes,

that is a very clear sounding voice.  People tell me it is a nice looking
clock as well. My one won't set the time via radio control but that is most likely something to do with the signal in my area. It is a nice clock and I 
understand it has a large display if that helps.

What about the radio controlled clock. I don't use the alarm, so don't know 
what it sounds like, but the female voice is very nice.

Hi David

I agree.  We have four old-fashioned striking clocks with hands in our
house.

But can anyone recommend a small clock.  I have had a Slimline clock for
nearly 20 years and it is dying.  Most of the new clocks seem to have very
strident
voices and chimes.  And I hate that awful cock crowing alarm!
