(meteorobs) OT -Possible flaw in using UT with Sentinel.

Even though Sentinel can be set to read events in Universal time.... Ed 
Majden has uncovered what appears to be a flaw in Sentinel to recoqnize 
start and stop time of the watch mode if UT is used.

An event outside of the time period selected, seems to cause an event 
instead of a time of day skip.

When returned to Standard time, or Daylight time, Sentinel records events 
outside the set time period as a time of day skip.

Because the start time is not recoqnized in UT, I would not know what 
Sentinel will do when stop time is reached in UT.

I have returned my Sentinel back to Daylight time even though there are 
times when UT might be more useful.

If anyone has found a solution?
