[aprssig] Timestamp Questions

[Bob Bruninga]

If it is "h" it is assumed to be local.

If it is "z" it is UTC (zulu).

Is an 'h' format timestamp assumed to be local or UTC?

Does APRS-IS send out 'h' timestamps as local, UTC, or as received from
source?

If I am doing a HUD display for messages (or other stuff in the future) do I
care about the timestamp?
