A wall clock is an important element of house décor. This clock not only shows you time but also imparts a charming look to your space. Youshiko’s Radio Controlled Wall Clock (UK & Ireland version) is one such clock that displays the time in an easy to read format. The dials of this clock are of large size which makes it possible for you to check the time even from a distance.
An important feature of this clock is that it changes time automatically for spring and autumn and does auto time checks as well. The need for manual intervention is eliminated by this clock which makes it very useful in everyday life. With dimensions, 21 x 21 x 3 cm, this Radio Controlled Wall Clock can be wall-mounted without much effort.
There are two signal types in Europe. The MSF signal is used within the UK and Ireland and the transmitters are located in Cumbria (UK). For the rest of Europe, the DCF-77 is used where the transmitters are located in Mainflingen, about 25km south-east of Frankfurt (Germany). The MSF radio signal is a dedicated standard-frequency and time broadcast that provides an accurate and reliable source of UK civil time. DCF77 is a German longwave time signal and standard frequency radio station and the station signal carries an amplitude-modulated, pulse-width coded 1 bit/s data signal.
The Youshiko Wall Clock works on the MSF and ensures automatic time change for spring and autumn along with automatic time checks. The clock picks up the signal from Cumbria - UK transmitter and gives you accurate time. You never have to do anything as the clock self sets automatically.
A highlighting feature of this wall clock from Youshiko is that it always shows the correct time as it is constantly receiving the MSF UK atomic clock radio timing signal. The timing is accurate to 1 second in 10 million years and the clock has automatic set up for time and calendar (where applicable). The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is the UK's home of measurement and the nation's timekeeping. NPL is responsible for operating the national time system and making accurate time available across the UK.
This clock keeps accurate time by picking up the NPL's radio signal, called MSF, which is transmitted on 60KHz from Cumbria. This transmission carries a date and time code that the radio-controlled products use to set themselves to the correct time. The signal is controlled by atomic clocks at the radio station and is adjusted to keep in step with the national time maintained at NPL laboratory in London.

I already have 2 radio controlled Wall clocks from Youshiko, 1 is on the sitting room and another is in the bedroom. I needed another radio controlled clock for the kitchen.
The clock is on the wall above the cooker and the aluminium casing matches the stainless steel splash-back for the cooker. The radio signal for the clock is not strong there but the clock does pick it up.
This has met my expectations and I can therefore recommend it.
