It uses whatever time format you have set in your system settings...

"Above the QSO Edit area is displayed the registered user call sign,  
the call sign of the last found image from the QRZ call sign lookup  
(which is displayed in the Image Well), the grid square of the  
registered user and the UTC date and time displayed in whatever  
format you have set in your system settings."

You can set the date format in the System Preferences/International/ 
Formats/Time.

It would be much easier to use a db or spreadsheet for this.  
Templates have been provided to make this quick and painless...
