Remember, the A04 season starts at 7 PM EST tonight (0000 UTC).
If you are looking for a favourite broadcaster or program try one hour previous to the time it has been on. Many, many frequencies will be changing also, so if you don't know the new frequency, good luck in finding it, and be sure to post your results here. Some of the new schedules are already posted he http://eibi.gmxhome.de/hp/bc-a04.txt Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B http://www.iserv.net/~n8kdv/dxpage.htm |

Geesh, just when I am getting to know what I am doing, everything changes!
I realize most of the US will go to daylight savings time this coming weekend; if I am going by UTC for my listening, nothing will change though, right???

If you go on daylight time, UTC is one hour *less* ahead of you. If you're on EDT next week then UTC is 4 hours ahead of you, not 5. 6pm EDT would be 2200 UTC instead of 2300 UTC. |

I've found a great little tool called AlphaClock for the PC. See http://www.irnis.net for details. I have an old Pentium 133 that I've dedicated to radio use -- controlling my FT-817, programming my scanner, some basic logging, that sort of thing -- and put this dinky little program in the startup folder. Set it to display UTC and positioned it at the top center of the screen. Stays on top of everything, shows me the time in UTC and shows the date if I put the mouse cursor on it. I combined that with a program called Tardis which keeps the computer clock sync'd with the Naval Observatory (I have RoadRunner at home, sharing the broadband across the network so all the PCs have a full-time connection) and updates itself every hour or so just to be safe, and I have a bang-on time reference. Beats heck out of listening to WWV and trying to set one of those goofy MFJ clocks! ;-) -- -- //Steve// Steve Silverwood, KB6OJS Fountain Valley, CA Email: |
