I'm a little confused. Right now it's 1200Z July 4th. Yet the club website says: "The Firecracker Sprint contest is over! Make sure you submit your log by 2359Z 07/11/21."
I thought it ran until 1959Z on July 4th. What am I missing here? Tom W4FLL

Tom -
Ignore that item on the web page. It's auto-generated, and was apparently mis-programmed.
You do still have a few hours left.

Tom,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
That is a result of the server being on PDT and me being in CDT, and the contest being in GMT. Every contest I setup that timer, and for some reason there are times when the time conversion gets lost in this 77 year old mind. Normally W9SMR keeps me on my toes, but apparently he didn't tell me it needed to be corrected. I am in Missouri right now (Branson), and don't have my login info to access the server. BTW, the Jesus performance at the Sight and Sound theater is awesome and worth the trip to Branson! 73
