I would think so. The reason is because of the things picking it up in the U.S. and the fact that Florida doesn't have earthquakes(the last one, see Disney Wilderness).

GMT should be 7 hours ahead of MST. UTC I'm pretty sure is the same time.

UTC (Universal Time Clock) and GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) are one and the same, based on the observatory in Greenwich, UK; MST (Mountain Standard Time) refers to the time zone in the western U.S. (east of CA, west of KS).

Please feel free to correct me if I'm in error...

Yes. MST would be 2 hours behind of EST which covers places like Atlanta, New York, Washington, Miami, Boston, Cleveland, Philadelphia, and Detroit, 1 hour behind CST which includes Chicago, Dallas, Minneapolis, Kansas City, St. Louis, Memphis, Houston, and New Orleans and 1 hour AHEAD of PST which includes Los Angeles, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Seattle.

MST covers Denver, Albuqerque etc.

Phoenix (and all of Arizona for that matter) are in the Mountain Standard Time Zone (MST) as is UT and Salt Lake City.
