Default Mapping times from GMT to UTC

I am an amateur radio operator who travels all over. I am looking for a way
to simply add hours in a spreadsheet from GMT to
UTC.
Example.
28-Jul-07 18:38:05 0:10:54 355 11 314 256 18:48:59

The 18:38:05 represents time in GMT. I need to creat a formula that will
simply add say 7 hour to the 18:38:05 which will provide the UTC time. IE.
18:38:05 = 01:38:05.
I have attempted to use examples however they do not appear to work. Any
ideas?

XL stores times as fractional days (e.g., 3 hours = 3/24 = 0.0125).

So to add 7 hours

B1: 18:38:05

J1: =B1 + 7/24

Format J1 as a time

Is the text from your example all in one cell? If so, try this (which will
correct the date when the added amount takes the time past midnight)...

=TEXT(--LEFT(A1,18)+B1/24,"dd-mmm-yy hh:mm:ss")&MID(A1,19,99)

The above assumes your example text is in A1 and the amount of hours you
want to add is in B1

I don't see how that can be right. UTC is the same as London winter
time. By GMT you mean either the old name of UTC, in which case GMT =
UTC, or you mean the local London time, which is always either UTC or
UTC+0100.

Can you say some more about what you're trying to accomplish?
