Re: [HCDX] RNZI off air on 30th Sept for Antenna Maintenance

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wrong, wrong, wrong. RNZI is royally mixed up yet again. Sept 30 is Sunday, not
Saturday. Apparently they are also not aware that summer time already started
UT Sept 29 at 1400, so local time is UT +13. That would convert to 2135-0500
UT, presumably Saturday into UT Sunday. The incorrect UT conversion should have
read 2235-0600. Experience also shows that such predicted downtimes are often
only approximate and it may be missing beyond these times. Always beware of
quoting RNZI website without explicatory, corrective notes such as these (Glenn
