Short notes on Time and Date

Since radio signals can cross multiple time zones and the international date line, a standard time and date is needed. This standard is Coordinated Universal Time(UTC), formerly known as Greenwich mean time (GMT).

PST = UTC/GMT - 8 hours
(Pacific Standard Time, observed during summer in USA and Canada)
PDT = UTC/GMT - 7 hours
(Pacific Daylight Time, observed during winter in USA and Canada)

Note: Just a personal note.
