Note that as far as I know, ATA in India (10 MHz) ceased shortwave transmissions around the year
2000.

That was one of the few time signal stations that I never heard.

still being sent-out. ~ RHF

transmitters were ailing and at times malfunctioning. After
a long period of consideration, and increasing technical
problems, the decision was finally made not to replace the
old electronic equipment, but rather to take the station off

Subject : NPL -website- Correction concerning "ATA" 10 MHz
Standard Time & Frequency Signals Broadcast Service

The website states that the National Physical Laboratory (NPL)
is still Transmitting a Standard Time & Frequency Signal on
10 MHz -but- It has been reported that around the Year 2000
this Service was Terminated.

Review and Correct the Accuracy of the Information stated
on this NPL -webpage-
Standard Time & Frequency Signals Broadcast Service :
Call Sign `ATA' - http://www.nplindia.ernet.in/time.php
Last Update : 04 / 03 / 2008

Please Confirm : That in-fact the NPL is still Transmitting a
Standard Time & Frequency Signal on 10 MHz -or- Not.

-Or- Please Correct : The NPL -webpage- ASAP.
