I have jumped the SS gun by an hour in my younger years....Rather embarrassing! Heck I was working people in the CWT last week minutes after the test was over. I dumped the qsos but why did nobody tell me? Hey where did all the QRM go. Where did all the signals go on my scope? whoops!

A similar thing happened in Sweepstakes Phone this past fall. One fellow had moved from on time zone to another and had not adjusted his thinking regarding the local starting time. It was about 10 minutes before someone let him know he was jumping the gun. It's tough getting older!

I copied a VE call this Sunday morning calling CQ OK TEST VExxx  CQ.

I sent back to him that the contest ended at 2400z Saturday 12/17/1016.
Evidently there are still people who do not read the rules before a contest
so as to have the proper information.  The VE was somewhat surprised.
