Do they work in our neck of the woods??  :D

PS. I understand that ones tuned to the UK broadcast wont work.  But would one work if tuned to the German broadcast?  Or is there another???  I suspect not, but thought I would ask anyway.

Works across the otherside of Uzumlu. But it kept resetting to UK time, so I stripped the second hand, minute and hour hands of and moved hour hand by 2 hrs and rebuilt. Its worked fine for 4 years.

We have one and we had to reprog it to accept 'Athens' time to keep it accurate.  Once we did that we have had no probs.
