Incorrect time in Geocaching Found Note (time zone bug?)
I have problem with mark cache as found/not found - when I want to
type hour, it set incorect hour (when 13, it set 15). It`s related to
time zones below. When I set GMT+2 (Poland) I get wrong time (maybe
day saving light time?), and when I set GMT+0 I get too wrong time.
Can You check this? I didn`t send my logs to geocaching.com, in Poland
there is opencaching.pl, and I want only to have list of founds
cache, with correct time. Maybe option to disable time zones, and use
local time, for non-geocaching users. Or try to fix this bug, it`s
maybe related to day-saving-light time (Poland is GMT+1, but in summer
there is +2).
Sorry for my bad english, I have hope that You will fix this bug.

If correct time is ex.12:30, and I open change-time window it show
11:30 (GMT+1). When I set it to 12:30 it save hour correct.
The same problem 
Hi,
you already wrote me an email right? I`m continue with solving here.
this was already discuss here https://getsatisfaction.com/locus/top... where is described how stupid system grounspeak have! Problem is anyway solved in Locus now.
But! All this works for geocaching.com, not opencaching as you mention.
You say, that when you set timezone to GMT+0, you still get incorrect result?
EDIT: after a while ... I see possible problem with time picker right? I`ll check it more carefully ...

Now I know that Geocaching.com support time only in one time zone.
If I set time zone to GMT+0 (ETC), it will save time correct. But when I want to pick time with picker it always show time 2 hour earlier. Now is 9:37, but in time-picker there is 7:37. If I want to pick 16:35, in time picker I must choose 14:35.

it was much worst then I expect ...
may you please test this Free test version and let me know if it works as you expect? As I play with it, seems to be correct. Thanks

No. It`s no correct.
GMT0 - In time picker time is always correct, but when I save field note hour is always +2.
GMT+2 - always set GMT0 when I reopen window, save hour correctly, but when I reopen window it`s always -2.

wait a minute ...
how it works:
when you open "Field notes" screen and set your time and timezone, Locus recompute this value to GMT+0!, always! That`s why you when you return back see this value (recomputed time and GMT+0). This have to be done for next work, time just have to be in this timezone.
I`m trying it and when I
- set time 13:50 and timezone +2, in field note is 11:50 - correct
when I tap on this FN, I see timezone +0, time 11:50 - correct
- set time 13:50 and timezone +0, in field note is 13:50 - correct
when I tap on this FN, I see timezone +0, time 13:50 - correct
you should have same experience. If you, check if you use really Locus Free 2.5.2.3 version

Ok. It`s correct.
But I don`t need to send logs to geocaching.com, I use field notes to send to my local opencaching.pl. Maybe in next versions You can add option to completly ignore time zones, and in fieldnotes store only local time?
