Thanks Trevor. In my early-morning, single-parent (wife on course) haste I tried to triangulate the EST times from 3 different websites early this morning, rather than calculating them out, and then got further confused looking the times up in Starry Night, which might not have been set to DST. Basically I took an hour off the wrong direction. Blunder.
