help in inserting values in date format
how to assign values in this date format

a=`date +"%H%M%S"`

how to give value of H=22,here in this format so that i can grep 22nd hour.Below is the script
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

a=`date +"%H%M%S"`

for i in *.log
do
cat $i | grep $a | wc -l >> file1.txt
done
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

actually wat i m doing is greping Particular hour in all the logs files and storing the count in file1.txt

i want a date format that can be flexible enough to input our own hour values,depending upon my requirements.so i need that kind of a format to be used in my script.
