Daylight Saving Time Problem

Post by Flosex »

The change from GMT to Daylight Saving Time in the UK last night has caused me a problem with the time that Cumulus records data from my Davis Vantage Pro-Plus weather station. I have had this problem before and cannot remember what the work around is, despite searching back through the messages

As I understand it, Cumulus gets the time for logging data from the computer clock, which if set to local time (GMT + 1 hour now), will be accurate, but I need my computer clock set to GMT to enable the logging program for my amateur radio station to log my contacts with the correct time (the international time for amateur radio is GMT).

Can somebody remind me what the work around for this is, please?

Thanks

Chris

Re my earlier query, I have now found the work around by changing a setting in my amateur radio logging program.
