I've got nothing running at the moment that decodes or locks to DCF77, and
obviously can't comment on the possibility of localised interference, but
here on the west coast of Scotland the signal certainly looks and sounds
just as it always does.
It's a nice clean signal peaking at approx -77dBm as opposed to MSF on
60KHz peaking at -50dBm, which is much as I would expectd given that MSF is
very much closer.

For the past several days (now thirty hours straight), none of my
radio-synchronized clocks has been able to synchronize with DCF77. Is
there a problem with the transmitter, or maybe a geomagnetic storm or
something that could explain it? I've been looked at the transmitter
Web site and searching for news and information on any disturbances
that would affect reception, but I haven't found anything. I'm about
500 km from the station. The only thing I have that will sync is my
wristwatch, and it will only do it if I stand outside in an open area.
