I found this thread and see that the problem has been discussed previously. Looks like the Nav clock automatically sets itself and then uses the Nav software 'rules' to make the applicable time zone and DST adjustments.

As a work around, I guess this I could change my time zone from Eastern to Central for the next 3 weeks (or use the 5.1 Nav override to temporarily change the Nav clock)???

Looks like we'll have to wait for the 7.1 Nav software, for a fix.
You NAV never set the DST flag automatically. You need to do it manually twice a year.
MENU->SETUP->TIMEZONE (I think) and in there is DST on or off. Pick one.
