BBC's 7 pips went off o.k. too <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_Time_Signal> They
were broadcast on Radio 5 Live. You can replay them here:
<http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00g4dsd> about 2/3 of the way through the program. The
main radio networks (1 through 4) only carried Big Ben.

> CHU got it right this time. Last time there was a change in the DUT1 value effective

> January in addition to the leap second. The notice from IERS was sent late and the
> people responsible for inputting the new DUT1 value were already on their
> Christmas/New
> Year break when it arrived.
