Ahhh..so it was logging correctly but on a client receving the object it would
misinterpret.
Do you think it's worth converting the Log window to use the edit widget? I
could do that.

I see the patch set Qt::UTC.
I was getting UTC times on my system. Do you perhaps have an environment var
that changes the time zone that Qt is using? I can't find any reference on
environment variables overriding defaults. I'm running on Windows 10.
And since you set UTC after the times have been parse I'm a bit confused as
to the effect. I guess it fixed some problem on your system?
Hi Mike, I noticed the issue when writing some AutoIt code to demonstrate how
to do UDP multicast message reception. The problem was that the code in
logqos.cpp was breaking a QDateTime UTC object into separate date and time
strings then rebuilding a QDateTime object from them. The problem is that the
resulting QDateTime object was incorrectly flagged as local time despite the
time actually being UTC. All I have done is reset the UTC flag so that the time
object is correct and consistent. I was just correcting sloppy programming,
probably would have been better if the Qt QDateTimeEdit widget had been used
rather than messing around with splitting and re-parsing the QDateTime objects.
This probably mattered little except that the QDateTime object was being sent
in the UDP "QSO Logged" message, so recipients in theory should misinterpret
the time as local for their location. I have no idea if JTAlert etc. actually
take any notice in the timespec component of the QDateTime field but it was
incorrect and ow it is correct. 73
