[Leica] [OM] Utility to batch correct date/time of Raw files?

[Piers Hemy]

Should I take your response as a QSL, Peter?

Not a shortwave listener *since* my teenage years, but clear memories still. I have the BC-221 around here somewhere.

73!

Ya know, you're right. Why bother?  So I won't.  Thanks, Nathan and Piers.

Amusing footnote:  I've been a shortwave listener and amateur radio
operator since my early teen years. So I always have a clock set to GMT (or
UTC, if you prefer) in the house.
