Many thanks for the careful work!
I have checked the references you gave and offer the following comments:
• source
[https://library.hungaricana.hu/hu/view/Delmagyarorszag_1949_09/?pg=94]
documents only the step back on 1949-10-02 from 03 hours to 02
hours, but
the start of summer time in 1949 is not documented in the sources
you quote.
• Also, the step back on 1942-11-02 is not documented in the sources.
• sources
[https://library.hungaricana.hu/hu/view/Delmagyarorszag_1981_01/?pg=79]
and
[https://library.hungaricana.hu/hu/view/DTT_KOZL_TanacsokKozlonye_1983/?pg=85]
seem to be inconsistent: both mention two different date for the
switch back
in autumn (1981-09-26 and 1981-09-27 resp 1983-09-24 and 1983-09-25); I
could make sense of different dates for the steps forward (from 24
h to 01 h)
but not for the steps back.
• source
[https://library.hungaricana.hu/hu/view/DTT_KOZL_TanacsokKozlonye_1980/?pg=1227]
gives the steps for 1981, and should therefore placed later in the
zic source.
Do you have a source for the steps in 1980?
I do not read Hungarian, so I easily may have overlooked something in
these
sources. Thanks again for the extensive work!
