Hi Bram, Thank you very much for your help. I have confirmed that the locale on the server is set correctly, so the remaining possibility at this point is the boolean 'localTime' in the method call:
* @param localTime * if true, adjust for local timezone, otherwise GMT I suspect that this value is false when invoked for some reason. I will look into this.

The timezone must be set to GMT (I am GMT -4), but I cannot find where to correct this. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
