Default Re: Electric clocks running slow warning

I suspect that most listeners would not notice most frequency disturbances, but yes a keen listener would notice bad mains frequency variations.

In years gone by, cinema projectors were tied to the line frequency, and cinema staff with a good watch or clock could just about detect that the actual running time of a film could vary by a minute or so.
