Hi Terry,

Your example 2 is dead on and has been treated differently
by different WPX contest managers over the years.  Perhaps
K5ZD will provide a definite answer to this.

If your 36 hours of operating time are finished at 2341z, will 
the remaining 19 minutes of contest time that are not
being used, force a reduction in score?  Or, put another,
way, will 2341-2359 be treated as a 19 minute off-time and 
then you will lose qso's for the previous 41 minutes
of operating time, even though you have not actually
operated for more than 36 hours?
