[CQ-Contest] Pacific VK/ZL/P2 160-Meter Contest - Time Correction

[Ward Silver]

I am forwarding this on behalf of Ian, VK3JS.  This is a change in the hours
from what has been published previously, but this is the real info!

Remember that while it may be mid-summer HERE, it's mid-winter THERE and
prime Top-Band DXing time.  Worth a listen!
