I figure this is always a good time to confuse people about shortwave.
The US goes back to daylight savings time this sunday at 2am. Europe I
think does it the first week in April. Who knows about the rest of the
world.

This will be interesting to see how the broadcasters adjust to this.
Do they maintain UTC time? Do they follow the US time switch? Do they
follow the European time switch? Or do they do what they do now, which
is total unpredictability and chaos??

Always something with shortwave....
