No, the opposite. Explicit permissions are those set in the GUI.  
Implicit are permissions defined by a user role, e.g. of  
administrators or share owners.

And did you actually request the permission for one of those users? In  
your script you use horde_login as the 3rd parameter, which, I assume,  
is the owner of the calendar that your are querying.
