I love the idea.
In fact it would be a no brainer to put a clock at the control point of the
station or near the EAS decoder set to UTC time. It would help train
operators of the amount of shift.

Personally, I see no problem with the standard being the current standard
time.
UTC , standard time, I fail to see a significant difference in practice.
DST, now THAT's a problem no matter how you slice it, and more
a waste of time in my opinion.
