Radio controlled clock Long Caption: The Junghans 'Mega' desktop clock receives a long-wave radio signal every day broadcast on 60 KHz (call-sign MSF) from Rugby, UK, carrying time information from Britain's national atomic clocks at the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington. These radio transmissions automatically set the clock right. Similar clocks are made which receive the national radio time signals of other countries including Germany, Japan and the USA.
