Default UTC and how to calculate it

What is UTC exactly?

I live the Mountain Time zone and would like to know what time it is in
Britain. Does anyone have a chart that I can down load to help me?

Thanks

This may help.
p1. I am in the Eastern time zone. I am 4 hours behind UTC. It is 4:14pm
(add 12 hours for afternoon times to convert to 24 hour time) on my monitor
amd 20:14 on my clock. Convert from Eastern to Mountain Time.
p2. Radio Shack Travel Alarm Clock/Calendar (item no. 63-959) can be
set for 24 hour time. Costs about $15. I keep it at my computer.
p3. Buy Monitoring Times and look at the Shortwave Guide listings. All
times are given in UTC and in E/C/P time zones.

Thanks everyone I've learnt something Z was told to me to be a hang over from Morse code days. See K at the end of a QSO means "invitation to transmit" or "roger" or even short for "OK"

As for finding charts etc---to be honest I've found it in the front of many a diary or personal organiser. Since a lot of people do internet business these days it is a handy thing to have on call. Try that!!!

This is true for us in Australia where I am. Plenty are available in any newsagent. Bookstore maybe for you guys anywhere you get things like business ledgers for book keeping etc.
