3.2 ADJUSTING THE TIME
The time information supplied by the GPS satellites is in Universal Time Coordinates (UTC or
Greenwich England Mean Time). To change the GPS Chart Plotter to read the correct time, first

This map shows offset for standard time. For daylight saving time, subtract one hour from the offset time.
