G'day Rod,

 RG>       In a message you posted to RussP not long ago you was asking
 RG> about zone changes in his NOTIME program.
 RG> I was going to comment when your message
 RG> arrived in SA, but as yet it
 RG> hasn't arrived here. :-(

 The joys of Fido Net )-:

 RG> that it would get little use here because
 RG> we don't have an equivilent
 RG> to the Naval Observatory time service.

 Well we COULD all ring the USA NO (:

 RG> This is not strictly true.
 RG> We have two numbers (that I know of) for
 RG> a dial up time service, both supplied from AOTC.

 Ta, didn't know that...

 RG> The numbers to call are
 RG> 07 2217033
 RG> 03 6001641

 Melbourne & Brisbane huh? I guess they show local time?

 RG> Neither of these supply the date/time in
 RG> the same format that NOTIME
 RG> requires though, but it shouldn't be too hard to modify.

 Might have a look.. have exported your notes, ta..

 RG> I *was* going to modify NOTIME to use these numbers and format, but
 RG> haven't got around to it yet. (thats why I never bothered about
 RG> uploading NOTIME to WOW).

 You'll probably do it better & neater than I (:

 RG> Hmm, what else have you been getting Dazza to FREQ ??
 RG> I suppose that you *are* aware that most
 RG> of the programs discussed in
 RG> the CBM echo's are programs that I have already d/loaded from USA
 RG> myself.

 Well no, but I might have guessed (:

 RG> I also have ACE-R8 and NateD's  WAVEPLAY
 RG> program (if your interested,
 RG> and haven't already got Dazza to Freq them).

 Nope.. and would like a look at ACE-R8 (weren't they discussing -R9?)

 Not that interested in WAVEPLAYER..

 RG> Anyway, it may pay you to check with me
 RG> before getting Dazza to Freq
 RG> files.. chances are that I already have them.

 Ta, don't do it very often and only if I *know* the files have made it
to DBar..
