Default OT MSF clock


While we're on the off-topic of time, it strikes me as perverse that the BBC
(and perhaps others) persist in broadcasting the pips on digital TV, even
though they are a couple of seconds late (I imagine DAB radio is the same,
but I haven't got one).


And about 15 seconds late via broadband.

Norman.


At the risk of drifting even more OT, why is digital TV about 2 secs
out of synch with analog? It's a bit strange when you switch from one
to the other and here the last 2 words again.
