Clock time for GZ250.com

It says in the upper right corner of the page that all times are UTC - 5hrs [DST] , but the clock is 1 hour off, 1 hour late for the East coast. Is this set for DST? Actually, it is also 4 minutes slow.

Yes, that's probably why it says [DST] in the display!?!?! :roll:

Apparently it doesn't automatically adjust for DST on and off......or it's on an old schedule.
I just changed mine in User Control Panel and now it is spot ON.

How did you do that? If I try to change or delete the number in the time, when I hit the delete button I get taken back to the previous page I was on, I can't change the number. How did you reset the time?
Did you change your time to UTC -4 to change the time?

(I probably couldn't do it because I have ammo cans) (Just kidding) :biggrin:

:??:

Sorry I was somewhat inaccurate with my previous statement:
"I just changed mine in User Control Panel and now it is spot ON."

You can't actually SET the time in UCP; you can only set your time zone and turn DST on or off.
I turned DST off and it now appears to be correct.

Someone should rewrite or reword that command "Summer time/DST is in effect" to something less ambiguous. I just reset mine to "no" and now my clock is correct but it should be correct if DST is clicked "yes".
Now this has to be done again in another 5 months, it's not automatic with the site?
