Well, no, unless you live in Indiana, where it apparently depends on
street address. I actually have done rocket science during Apollo, and
I'll take that over street addresses anytime. Last I heard, they are
going to do DST statewide but left it up to some legislature to
determine the new boundary between EST and CST. I won't hold my breath
for that action. Hawaii is easy ... no DST. I think AZ is similar if
not the same.
Where does all the "saved" daylight actually go? It was light when I
got up, and dark around dinner at 1730 last week. Now it's dark when I
get up and light until I get the dishes washed.
I wasn't aware that WWV ever sent DST stuff ... thought it was
programmed into some but not all of the "atomic" clocks. My "Atomic
Clock" is on UTC in my shack, so it doesn't care, although it keeps
pretty good time -- within about 3 sec. Wonder what chaos could be
caused if UTC went to DST?
