Hi Tony: The loopstick antenna has a pattern with a couple of nulls so the orientation is important. Also during the daytime there's probably too much noise to receive a good signal so best to listen around local midnight.

Are there any basic steps I should take to improve the reception quality of a radio clock? I have a cheap and cheerful DCF77 receiver for connecting to some GPIO pins, but its PPS output is basically noise with maybe a one-second period. Perhaps it's just cheap and nasty. I am in Cambridge. Tony (armchair time nut).
