Thanks, Fabi.  I kind of figured the same thging, but wanted another 
opinion.  I'll have to "watch the clock" if I take a break.

Hope to CU in the contest.

  Hi Dick,
  no I am quite sure that off times do not count in the 6 hour operating 
time as long as they are at least 60 min.or more. Should you take a 50 
minute break and resume operation even for a single (and tempting :) qso , 
then you will have lost 50 minutes of contesting time as this will be 
definitely count as part of the 6 hours. Only the first 6 hours operated 
will count for scoring purpose.
  Good luck , hope to see you then,

  73, Fabi va2up
