[CQ-Contest] How many hours do SOAB entrants actually operate?

[Joe]

Or how about yeah another new category.

The contest window is still the full 48 hours.  But you cant operate 
more than 24.

Skill strategy, comes in now. Not just the biggest signal. But when is 
best to maximize possible score and LOTS of time offs. So everyone 
should be able to do it.
