It is controlled by a transmitter in Germany. It corrects itself OK in England as long as it is not in an obviously radio wave protected location. It is not corrected whilst in the USA, Australia or Asia so I presume it is radio rather than satelite controlled and the US transmitter uses a different frequency to the German one. Frank --- "B. D.
