Daylight Savings Time...again

[paulgood]

Radio won't switch to daylight savings time.  Tried auto-sync  and tried unplugging AC for 30 secs.  Am I missing something?

Thanks

Same problem here. Hopefully someone @AR will take note..

I experienced the same thing.  In the past, it has taken various amounts of days for it to finally catch up on its own.  I don't think it will ever be fixed.  I am pretty sure this product is pretty much abandoned in terms of development.

This has happened before.  I have sent emails to Weather.weatherbug.com to fix the problem.  When it has happened in past years, and it has always been somebody at WeatherBug not updating their service to support the AR/AudioVox radio's time signal.

As a temporary bypass, to to Advanced Settings and switch from Auto to Manual clock updates.  Then manually change the hour, checking back in the next week or so to see if Auto starts to work again.

Had the same problem. You need to switch to manual settings for clock under advanced settings and set the time yourself. Check the manual - I think its page 28.

Many older devices do not recognize DST in its new lengthened form, but still hold to the old way which was a couple of weeks shorter in the front & back ends.

Mine is now showing the correct daylight savings time without any
intervention by me.

I checked the NIST web site. They say it starts on the second sunday
of March and ends on the first Sunday of November. The date may change
from year to year but it's not rocket science for the thing to
calculate those dates. I sure hope they don't have to manually diddle
the time at their server each year!

Mine is now showing the correct time as well.  I'm assuming my two feedback emails to WeatherBug may have had something to do with it.  One of us may need to ping them on the next DST change event as well, based on past experience.

My Canadian model running in the US is now correct as well.

Hi all.  I started this thread and thanks for all the replies.  The radio is now back on track.  Special thanks to Allan! for emailing weatherbug.
