Rugby Radio Clock (MSF)

[Bandy Brite]

I am interested in making a circuit to decode the information carried
by the Rugby Radio Clock in the UK
I have been reading up on it and discovered that there are two codes
transmitted, a slow one (1Hz) and a fast one.
Does anyone know the encoding method used on the fast code?

Please and thank-you

Apparently the fast code, using the first 200ms of the 500ms minute
marker gap, was originally and still is used to broadcast the hour and
the minute in binary code. Presumebly you know all about the other
code. Maplin market a receiver module and decoder module but the two
are not cheap (£42). My receiver came from another supplier some years
ago but at present I cannot remember who.
