I don't know this for a fact, but I would assume that they all run at UTC and then run a correction, based on your timezone setting, that shifts it the proper amount for the timezone you set. Ken - Thanks for that info. It helps me understand why my shack clock quit working a long time ago. I moved it all over the place, including in place of another one in another part of the house that worked right, and it would never correct. It was minutes off when I finally tossed it and bought a couple of new ones. They all work fine now. Because of this, I really doubt that they switch back once a day to bring the old equipment up to speed and then switch back. It never corrected itself in over a year.
