The overlap falls at 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Hong Kong, or 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM if you're in Los Angeles. Because Los Angeles is 15 hours behind Hong Kong, the shared window is only about 1 hour. A fixed slot at 8:00 AM in Hong Kong (5:00 PM in Los Angeles) saves a lot of back-and-forth. The overlap spans the date line; in practical terms, Los Angeles is on the previous day compared to Hong Kong. Because only Los Angeles changes its clocks, the overlap above isn't fixed; expect a one-hour shift when Los Angeles enters or leaves daylight saving.
