Time Adjust
All VHF, DSC, and GPS activities use a 24-hour clock and Universal Coordinated Time
(UTC) which was formerly known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Time Adjust uses
your built-in GPS to gather time input. Time Adjust will allow the radio to display the
time as Local time or UTC time. For time input to be converted to local time, you need
to enter the hour offset of your local time zone from Greenwich. (See world city time
zone chart on page 80). You can also choose to have the time displayed in a 12 or 24
hour format
