It seems to be functioning now. Something "happened" to my TZ variable.
I did a SETVAR TZ = "PST8PDT", then a SETCLOCK and now when I do a SHOWCLKS, all looks good.
Thanks to everyone for their help.
Happy Veterans Day to all on this side of the pond...
Ernie

This is an old version of the job I used at longs...
This job ran once a week -- mostly to sync the system clock.
I think the job got changed to incorporate some of Paul Christidis' coding brilliance (check raven it might be out there...) but the if statements certainly need changing to suit the whims of those who feel it necessary to monkey with when we change in/out of DST.
Other adjustments include adapting for your timezone.
You, of course, won't need to comment the ntp line because you're already running it, right?? Right?? ;-)

!# Results of the Time Zone Form
!#
!# If the change in time zone is to a later time (a change to Daylight
!# Savings Time or an "Eastern" geographic movement), both local time
!# and the time zone offset are changed immediately.
!#
!# The effect is that users of local system time will see an immediate
!# jump forward to the new time zone, while users of Universal Time
!# will see no change.
!#
!# If the change in time zone is to an earlier time (a change from
!# Daylight Savings to Standard Time or a "Western" geographic
!# movement), the time zone offset is changed immediately. Then the
!# local time slows down until the system time corresponds to the
!# time in the new time zone.
!#
!# The effect is that users of local system time will see a gradual
!# slowdown to match the new time zone, while users of Universal Time
!# will see an immediate forward jump, then a slowdown until the
!# system time again matches "real" Universal Time.
!#
!# This method of changing time zones ensures that no out-of-sequence
!# time stamps will occur either in local time or in Universal Time.
