significantly reduce the life of your batteries.

Zone numbers are based on the distance of the zones from
the international date line (zone number zero). For example,
there is a 13-hour difference between the date line and
London (London is 13 hours behind), so the zone number for
London is 13. Honolulu is 23 hours behind the date line, so
its zone number is 23.
The names and zone numbers of 27 cities are stored in the
