I can insert current local time, QSO time (on/off) but cannot seem to get UTC. Was also trying to insert my QTH from LOGic setup. Could not find that variable so I hard coded it. (Not possible for current UTC.) Thanks and 73s, Don, W2ZI

The expression you need is global.utc_time It returns a 6-character string. global.utc_date returns the current date as type date Tnx & 73, Dennis WN4AZY

Both variables work in the Database Commands window: ? MDY(global.utc_date) and ? global.utc_time HOWEVER, only the global.utc_date works in the terminal key macros. Putting global.utc_time in the macros is rejected. Also tried several of the time-related functions on it with similar rejections. Thanks for the help, 73s, Don

I had no problem, and tested it and it worked on Telnet.

It will still allow me to 'OK' and save the changes. When I hover over the particular T macro, the crashes. Don File Attachment(s): utc time error.jpg (96kb) downloaded 64 time(s).
