Well I thank you all for your replies and explaining this to me.
It appears this Section might be used more in SSB or CW contests.
It appears this is just 1 class out of 12 one can enter under in a BARTG
contest.
Again thanks to all you seasoned vets helping this rookie.
I got off to a bad start anyway in the contest I had the wrong contest chosen
In N1MM and I kept getting errors saying do you want to log this contact.
I guess I need to work more contests to build up my skills.

Hi Tom,
No you are misunderstanding the rule. Its a 6 hour continuous period. After a 3
hour rest you can play again but tgat log is a checklog only.
Hope that clears up the SOAB6 rule.

Subject: [RTTY] BARTG Contest classes
Now that I know the time of the contest.
I find this class of entry: SOAB6
The definition states:
Single Operator All Band 6 hour. Entrants in this class must enter a log for
the first 6 hours of their contest operation. If they wish to operate for a
longer period
the remainder of their log must be entered as a separate checklog. Rest
periods may not be less than 3 hours per period.
Entrants may only change band once in any 5 minute period.
Am I correct in thinking I can play in the contest for 6 hours out of the
24 hours of the contest
As long as I take a rest period for 3 hours anywhere in that 24 hour period.
So I can run for 3 hours take a 3 hour break and run for another 3 hours,
giving me a total of 6 hours in the contest that count towards my score.
I can run for 3 hours on Saturday, sleep & eat and go for 3 more on Sunday
or am I misunderstanding this Contest class.
Thanks,
Tom - WA2PNI
