Easy to Solve.
At Linton in 2009 I bought each SQN (3 at the time ) and Ops and ATC a cheap wall clock that would sync with the Rugby time signal. They cost £10 each from Argos. Saved the Stn £400 in the first year. suggested this RAF wide but left for NZ soon after. The saving is small fry really but saves headlines like this. Surprised that such a simple cheap solution was not taken up. Some units world wide would need something different though.
