[nfb-talk] Time of Day Services:

[Mike Freeman]

Dan:

You are absolutely correct.  I use the NIST automatic time (which is the
audio from the WWV broadcasts) and find it so useful that I have it
programmed into my iPhone as one of my Favorites.

Right now, you'd subtract four hours for Eastern Daylight, five for Central
Daylight, six for Mountain Daylight and seven for Pacific Daylight.

Mike

You can always get Coordinated Universal (Greenwich Mean) Time by dialing
the National Bureau of Standards automated number: 303-499-7111. You have to
subtract some hours, depending on your timezone and Daylight Savings Time
(and allow a half-second or so for the digital delay, etc.) but I can't
think of a better way to get real accuracy, which is important to me.
