- | The speed of light (radio waves) in a vacuum is 299792458 meters per second. So in 1 millisecond a radiowave travels 299792,458 meters, or just short of 300km. In order to correct for this delay, you have to configure your distance to the DCF77 transmitter. | + | The speed of light (radio waves) in a vacuum is 299792458 meters per second.
