[Elecraft] zulu time

[G3VVT at aol.com]

Note in the discussions of using Zulu time that keeping a station log is  
apparently no longer required in the USA.
 
In the UK a permanent log of station operation is still mandatory, whether  
it be in a book or by electronic means. Times have to be recorded in UTC (i.e.  
Zulu/GMT) together with other details such as frequency, class of emission 
and  power used. Presumably this requirement is primarily for tracing sources of 
 interference to other parties.
 
Probably would keep a record even if it was not mandatory as it is  
invaluable to find out who and when you have contacted in the past.
Getting to the point now anyway where I have brain erasure every time it  
goes dark outside. When this is added to a restricted hearing capability,  is a 
subject to agitate she who must be obeyed in the extreme.
