Change your clocks?
For those of us living in many parts of the world today is the day to change your clock back one hour on those devices that don't do so automatically. In fact, since DST changed in some countries those devices that do change themselves now do so on the wrong day, requiring two manual changes. Case in point, our household alarm clock. Also our daughter wakes at precisely 6am and does not adjust to changes in timezone or DST very quickly. Find any devices or systems that should change, but didn't? Things that change on the original dates, now that DST is on different days now? Let us know in comments below, or via our contact form here https://isc.sans.edu/contact.html.

The NIST time code transmits date, time and dst information. The DST flags take into account upcoming change, changeover and post time change. The European standard does the same thing. There's no excuse for this, in fact I created a WWV clock that actually uses DST flags to properly decode the current time and date. And did it because I own one of these clunker Atomic Clocks. Oregon Scientific, seems to do it right the others can be variable junk.

Then on the real DST day 11/7 it correctly adjusted itself. No problems.
