John, KG5OIB has activated POTA San Angelo SP in Texas. He's on 14.071.80. He's looking for contacts 13:50 z John KC3FL

I would think 12:00 GMT would be 12:00 GMT everywhere since it's Universal Time. I don't think GMT is affected by Daylight Savings as on the east coast our 00:00 went from 7 PM to 8 PM when we went in

Ruud, We worked 4 Dec 2018 and can do it again. We are seeing European stations on the east coast of the US between 20:00 z and 23:00 z 73 John KC3FL

Just ran an experiment on one of the chats to see how the time works. I sent a message with a time stamp of 1:39. Bob KK6KMU said he saw 10:39 as the time stamp so it converts the time to your time zo

It was a looooooooooong sprint but always fun. Nice to see the DX pop up in the late afternoon and early evening. I uploaded to the endorsement checker and was surprised with my new 308 Qs I didn't ge

Same here in Central Florida around 3 or 4 this afternoon. Used to the drill. John KC3FL

I noticed a lot of them and also some new LONP for me. What I really noticed were all the 0000 numbers. Should have a good jump in new members. John KC3FL
