The signal, also known as the MSF signal ( and formerly the Rugby clock ) is broadcast at a highly-accurate frequency of 60 kHz and can be received throughout the UK, and in much of northern and western Europe.

At first, there were announcements every fifteen minutes, beginning with the Morse code representation of " MSF MSF MSF " ( MSF is "-- ··· ··-·" in Morse code ), followed by speech " This is MSF, Rugby, England, transmitting ...".

This is found more in domestic equipment not designed for optimum sensitivity and positioned haphazardly ; only the few people aware of the Rugby switchoff will have made the connection between failure of MSF devices and the switchoff.

The Rugby transmitter's callsign was MSF, where ' M ' is one of the ITU prefixes allocated to the United Kingdom, and the letters ' SF ' were allocated for no documented reason.

This resulted in the common terminology " the MSF signal ", which is still used by the NPL.

The official history of the service says that " Rugby was given an additional commitment for the transmission of reference Modulated Standard Frequencies ", but no actual explanation is given for the call sign " MSF ".

The MSF transmitter is switched off for brief intervals ( on-off keying ) near the beginning of each second to encode the current time and date.

In 48 states, these local training sites are certified by MSF.

In addition to the Basic " RiderCourse " the MSF has designed an Experienced " RiderCourse " and various other curricula related to subjects of concern to motorcyclists, such as group riding and issues faced by more experienced riders.

MSF's courses are taught by instructors, or called RiderCoaches, certified by MSF and who, in turn, are trained by " RiderCoach " Trainers certified by the MSF directly.

Underlying the dispute was the question of whether programs like Team Oregon, or Idaho's Skills Training Advantage for Riders ( STAR ), were free to develop their own training programs, specifically in response to the contention by the state programs that the MSF had made changes in their course that weakened it, making it easier to pass while putting riders at greater risk.

Examples of a one-way time transfer system are the clock on a church or town building and the ringing of their time-indication bells ; time balls, radio clock signals such as LORAN, DCF77 and MSF ; and finally the Global Positioning System which uses multiple one-way time transfers from different satellites, with positional information and other advanced means of delay compensations to allow receiver compensation of time and position information in real time.

The change in location and consequent change in signal strength can make some equipment designed to use the MSF signal fail to continue doing so.

There are also some methodologies which combine both, such as the spiral model, RUP or MSF.

NPL also offers a range of commercial services, applying scientific skills to industrial measurement problems, and manages the MSF time signal.
