Modified defines for local time and local NTP host NTP_DELTA = 2208988800 - 3600 # subtract 1 hour = 3600 seconds to get GMT + 1 for Portugal host = "pt.pool.ntp.org" # using host from Portugal

This fixed it for me. Thank you! I had to do "+ 21_600" to get to North America Central Time. Thank you again!
