[UK-CONTEST] CT-Win time problem

Hi there,

I've been setting up the contest stn computers, ready for CQWW SSB.  We have two Pentium 300MHz, 128KB ram, running Win98SE and CT-Win v9.91.001, networked on Ethernet.  I noticed today that CT-Win lags the Windows time by 1 hour.  The computers were both set to GMT, no adjustment for daylight saving, region United Kingdom.  When I changed the Windows time to BST, CT displayed the correct GMT.  I think there was a way in DOS to tell CT a difference time between the computer clock and GMT - does anyone know if this can be done in CT-Win?  

I'm also wonder what will happen to CT-Win's time when daylight saving finishes - officially at 02:00 BST on Sunday, I think? - right in the middle of the contest.  Should I expect to change the computers at this time?

Many thanks and 73,
Doug G0WMW
