Time signal -

Starting at 23:58:00 -
A 100000000000000000001011010010110001110100011101100101111110

Starting at 23:59:00 -
A 1000000000000000000001011100001000001000000000000000001111110

So the new DUT1 was transmitted starting at 23:59:01, but the year 2017,
which is normally transmitted starting at 17s, was transmitted starting at
18s.

So it appears that the leap second was actually inserted at 23:59:17?
