The way I understand it, we will start at the same time (3 PM in the

in the midwest).
 



After talking to KI9A off line, I realize I had things backward.  For  some 
unknown reason, I was thinking that DST was starting rather than  ending.  
Since we are still in DST at the start of SS, it will indeed start  one hour later 
(i.e 4PM in the midwest) and end at the normal time (i.e 9  PM).
 
I still have concerns whether all logging SW will handle this  seamlessly.  
 
Any reassuring words from guys like N1MM, K8CC, N6TR, K1EA, etc?
