Yes.  You can use DayOfWeek() function.  For example, DayOfWeek() ==
1 will be true for all Mondays.  Day 0 = Sunday through Day 6 =
Saturday.  See DayOfWeek() in the AFL reference in Help.

I do not know if you can split the day's times like you want to or
not, but if you can someone will jump in and tell you how.
