Jeff;
Thanks for the clarification. Seems odd , though. I guess that means
that if someone happen to take two 35 minute breaks early on , any additional
clock time until the end of the contest is considered operating time
against the 24 hour limit - correct?
For some reason, at the time, we thought the log checking looked at the
longest two breaks. But if it doesn't work that way, it's good to know.
For the casual participant, it probably does not matter that much.

Al, K0AD

"2.2 Operating time will be calculated using the elapsed time between the
first QSO and the last QSO logged minus the longest two breaks during this
elapsed time where such breaks are a minimum of 30 minutes each."
Close. I agree this approach is clearer but does not reflect how it is
done currently. Log checking will take the FIRST two breaks longer than 30
minutes, not the longest two breaks.
