[ct-user] CT Time offset problem

[Gary Yantis]

George --
I had the same thing happen to me after the ARRL CW DX contest when I 
imported my CT contest log into DX4WIN.  I had been using CT 9.27 before 
but downloaded 9.36 just before the contest.  I then posted the same 
question you asked.  Ken, AD1C and others kindly pointed out I needed to 
also download the new b2r9 file that is also on the ctvault page.  I did 
and that fixed the import time problem.  Be sure to actually replace the 
old b2r9 file with the new one (rather than parking the old one elsewhere). 
 At least with DX4WIN it looks for the first b2r9 file it finds.  At first 
I left the old b2r9 file alone in my version 9.27 but I know of several 
CT/DX4WIN users that had the problem of DX4WIN finding the old file instead 
of the new one in version 9.36.  The new b2r9 file also works fine in 9.27 
(and I assume all 9.xx versions).  I didn't have a problem but, as I say, 
several others did.  So I replaced the file in both versions.  Hope this 
helps.

Hi all,
Well just getting over WPX I decided to import my .BIN file into my logging
program (LogPlus) which has always worked faultlessly.
To my horror I now find that although I always run in UTC on my computer,
and that the times were all correct, the QSOs have all been imported with a
7 hour time difference, i.e. VP5E worked at 2147z now shows 1447z in my
main logging program. This never happened before I down loaded version
9.36, why the change?
I checked the release notes and it says that CT assumes that the computer
is set to UTC, which it was.
Anybody know what I did wrong?
I'm sure gonna love manually changing all those 2900 QSOs!
73,
