Folks,
There's also an application from www.mapmaker.com called Sun Clock 4.0.
This shows a world map with solar and lunar cycles as well sun and moon
positions. You can enter your QTH by entering your longitude and latitude
in the setup routine. Although it doesn't sharpen pencils, it does support
multiple languages. I use it for contesting to check grey lines - just make
sure you coordinate your system clock (hours ahead/behind UTC) to the proper
UTC setting; otherwise the sun will be setting in Alabama at noon.

To set the Windows clock
1. Click Start and point to Settings.
2. Click Control Panel/
3. Double-click Regional Settings Properties
4. Click the Time tab
5. Type uppercase H or HH for the hour in Time Style to display time in a
24 hour format.
Example: HH:mm:ss
This will display the Windows time in 24 Hour format but it will still show
the colon between the hour and minutes. For example my clock now reads
19:01. You can use the Windows help files for more information on the
Date/Time settings.

I am running Windows 98 on my logging computer. How do I display 24 hour
universal time on the lower right tool bar of my display? I have clicked on
the time and display options, but find no such choice. Thanks. Bill,
