I noticed today that my satnav clock hasn't adjusted as it should have done. It seems these radio controlled clocks are ok adjusting for BST but don't like adjusting back to GMT.

We have three radio controlled clocks two at home and I have one at work. All three changed with no problems. So it must just be you Bob

My clocks must be able to receive a signal because if I remove and then replace the battery they pick up the signal straight away and adjust to the correct time. They normally adjust without any problems when the clocks go forwards but don't seem to want to adjust automatically when the clocks go back.

With regards to my car satnav I have just remembered I have to manually adjust it from BST to GMT and then it will automatically pick up the signal after that

...well, I only have to do it twice a year and that is a long time to remember at my age. I even had to dig out the instructions on how to adjust my wristwatch
