This morning, the VHF radio in the bedroom was tuned to Radio 4 for Desert Island Discs. The Freeview box in the living room was tuned to the same programme. I was in the kitchen and could hear both, but the Freeview signal was about 1 second behind that on the VHF set. Both signals were coming from the same transmitter so, if Einstein was correct and the speed of light is the same everywhere, why was there a time lag?
