This is an issue with the detection mechanism. CDMA networks pushoud out GPS time + Time Zone Offset + boolean indicator + leap seconds of DST.
Usually this should only be a problem determining between MST (GPS Time, -7, FALSE, 19?) and Arizona (GPS Time, -7, FASLE, 19?). But sometimes they don't even fix this correctly.
In the Sprint Rom you can go into the Phone, then Menu->Options, Service Tab, Highlight Time Synchronization and push Get Settings, Un-check the Time Synchronize With Mobile Network Automatically radio box.
Not sure if this is in a Verizon ROM or not.
The other problem could be an improperly configured base station. You could see if the issue occures in or around the same location.
Pretty much weird one off TimeZones get the shaft. It is even more interesting on GSM with areas like Asia. There Russia might do one thing and another country something else. An efficient algorithm to pick between those is almost impossible.
