Does GMT change? I thought GMT was always the same?

Nick - can you give some insight here? If we have reserved slots, we need to change them I believe... Right?

i totally misread my information tommie..no it doesn't sorry.

NOTE: Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is an absolute reference time and does not change with the seasons. Clocks move relative to GMT. The UK and Ireland which use GMT over winter switch to British Summer Time (BST) or Irish Summer Time (IST) respectively.
This is one hour ahead of GMT (GMT 1)

Yes GMT does not change... it is your local time that changes.

Eg: If you were in the USA and on GMT-4 you are now GMT-5 :) If you were GMT 10 (Sydney, AU) your now GMT 11.


The shows area which reserves slots is about to be cleared right out due to too many DJ's thinking its how they auto-book shows into the future.

OK.. so to sum this all up for those for whom the time changed (to include you Phex :P) ... We DO or DO NOT need to change all our show times?

Nick?

Time zones in USA are this now :

Eastern - (GMT-5)
Central - (GMT-6)
Mountain - (GMT-7)
Pacific - (GMT-8)

We are receiving complaints from dj's about their time slots being off an hour.. please check to make sure you set your time zone correct.. the station DOES NOT do it AUTOMATICLY. If you are set on your proper time zone .. then we will address the next step.. thank you.. this is also for ALL who have an account on the station
