David,
I'm listening to the Radio 3 FM transmission in Central Scotland. The
07:00 pips appear to be spot on when compared to my GPS-locked PC, using
my simple analog clock program:

It sounds as if your radio clock is off, so as others have suggested, try
positioning it for a clear, interference-free good strength signal and
retest.
Cheers,
David
