Default Re: Australia looses another icon.

Most DAB radios automatically set the time from broadcasts (DAB transmission contains a local time of day and so a device may use this to automatically correct its internal clock when travelling between time zones and when changing to or from Daylight Savings) and for us old Short Wave listeners there are always the time signal stations like:
CHU Canada: 3330 kHz, 7850 kHz, 14670 kHz
BPM China: 2,500, 5,000, 10,000, and 15,000 kHz
HLA South Korea: 5,000 kHz
BSF Taiwan: 5,000 and 15,000 kHz
WWV (Ft. Collins)/WWVH (Hawaii) United States: 2,500, 5,000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 and 25,000 kHz

See https://swling.com/blog/tag/shortwav...time-stations/ including some recordings.

But George's 1194 was a useful number to call to see if your landline was working.
