Mike,
The short answer is you can’t. The script is setup to say 12 hour format with AM/PM. It could be changed but I have no desire or time to do that right now. If someone else wants to tackle it I would be glad to include it in the distribution. /etc/asterisk/saytime.pl is a Perl script I wrote that says the time outside of app_rpt so you can alter that anyway you like as well as set the volume. I would be glad to assist anyone if they want to modify that code for say a say24time.pl script that could be called.

/etc/localtime is a symbolic link to the timezone and maybe I am reading you wrong do you want zulu time to read out or do you want to read out the time in 24 hour format. That is two different things.
24 hour format or military style time is 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300 etc. No AM/PM That is what I thought you meant.

forgive me for a correction, but I believe
you meant to say /etc/asterisk/local/saytime.pl

Thanks,

OK, It turns out it was easier than I thought. Here is a test script. Let me know if it works right for you. I am sure this may be some tweaks. Once OK I will include it in the next distribution.
Just call it with say24time.pl instead of saytime.pl - CHANGE THE NODE in the file!!!

Slight correction. The 0 minute said oclock instead of hundred - 13 hunderd, 14 hundred etc… Use this version for tests.
