I would guess that UEST refers to US - EST, as there are different EST 
zones, relative to UTC time:
http://www.worldtimezone.com/wtz-names/wtz-est.html

Although, I can find references to WEST, AEST, CEST, and even EEST, I 
don't see much mention of UEST:
http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/

Whoever coded that output should probably make it say UTC or GMT...or 
maybe it pulls it from the systems locale settings and that setting is 
incorrect.
