    Think there's an option in the QC to switch it over to the CA HOS rules if you want.

    There's a box to check that asks if you want to record a border crossing.

    Hey guys, it's been awhile since I used recap hours at night while in a different time zone... recap hours come back at midnight "yard" time correct? Not midnight local time.

    thanks.

    All log times are supposed to be home terminal time - regardless of the time zone you're in.

    Too bad it will be dark when driving western Montana and into Alberta... bet it's beautiful country to see. Hoping I travel back out during the daylight.

    MD careful driving at night lots of big critters running around Montana and Alberta this time of year. I'm sure they would prefer to not be an Abilene hood ornament
