Elecraft SSB net and time change to Standard time

Eric Lanzl
Just a reminder that with the time changing to standard time the Elecraft SSB net will take place one hour earlier. The time of the net is still 1800Z. Please join us for the net on Sunday.

If it's still at 1800Z, then it didn't change.  "Standard" time should not be
used in ham radio.

Use something like Google's Calendar.  Create reminders using UTC for ham
radio and other things that occur based on UTC.  And, unless you use your
memory instead, you'll always get a reminder at the correct time, regardless
of your local time.

 It's too bad so many time keeping devices account for this no longer
functional time change.  If we discarded the concept, it would take decades
to lose all the stuff that changes automatically.  Daylight Saving Time (not
savings) should have died with Ben Franklin!
