Question about Radio Controlled Wall Clocks and Compatibility

AllTheGoodUsernamesWereTaken · 2024-05-24 11:15:14

To cut a long story short, I am looking to buy a radio controlled wall clock so I no longer have to faff about re-setting it. However I am getting some conflicting information. If I buy a radio controlled clock from the UK amazon website, will it be compatible with whichever signal is received in Ireland?

I'm basing that on a Casio multi band watch, and several Lidl Precision alarm clicks I have at home, all of which pick up radio controlled signals fine.

Parents have one of the radio controlled clocks from lidl. It works fine but sometimes messes up when the clocks go forward/back… took ages fluting about with it in April then it randomly set itself to the right time a few hours later.
