OM, this is almost a carbon copy of the same bitch you put out on this reflector over a year ago in a post dated Saturday May 3, 2003 02:01:59 (which btw is listed as "EDT"). I don't really care what time it is in Indiana, cause I don't ever plan on going there. If you don't like the fact that other parts of the country observe different time standards, I suggest you complain to someone higher up the food chain than the net controls of the TT net. The reason I listed the times in both zulu and regular times is because apparently you are smart enough to realize that some people have trouble doing the conversions themselves. If you have any further questions or comments on this subject, I don't care to hear them!!

Dear Ed,

    There is no such time as "eastern" since there exists both an Eastern
Standard Time as well as Eastern Daylight Savings Time during the "summer"
months.
    Thanks to the "media" for using non legal time zone designators.
    This is why amateurs use (Z)ulu or GMT (Greenwich Mean Time).
    I applaud TenTec for using Z times only for the net times at
http://tentec.com/Amateur.htm .

...Steve  KB9GP (Eastern Standard Time the whole year in most of Indiana.
Thank goodness!)

The 20 meter net meets on Sunday afternoon at 14.329 20:30Z now during US daylight savings time, 21:30Z during US standard time. It is always 4:30 eastern, 3:30 central, 2:30 mountain, 1:30 pacific, etc. There are 5 different net control stations doing a weekly rotation. One in CO, TX, MI, IL, and I'm in NC. Next Sunday is Noel, w9efl, near Chicago.

The 40 meter net is Sunday evening at 7.251
22:00Z now during daylight savings time, 23:00Z during standard time.
It is always 6:00 PM eastern, etc.
I think all ncs's are in the eastern US, I know Jerry is in western NC.

This info concerning the times can be found on the Ten-Tec website
www.tentec.com
On the main page, click on the picture of the Jupiter, this is a link to the
amateur equipment.
The times are listed at the very bottom of the amateur page
www.tentec.com/amateur.htm


Look forward to hearing you on. 73. Ed,w4wvw
