Question How to set end limit while copying files of a range??

I have files being generated in format A20140326.00........ to A20140326.24.............

I need to copy these hourly basis from one location to another.
Eg. If i copy from 14 to 19 the hour, I use wildcard as A201403226.1[4-9]*.

Requirement is : I need to copy from 06 hour and wil run the script at 22:30 hour for instance. So Can anyone please help me in setting a wildcard which can do something like,
In the script i mention 6th hour and some wildcard whic increments to that hour,Instead of setting another hour.

I hope I am clear Smilie

NAME
Poll - Contains information specifying when the UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program (UUCP) should poll designated remote computers SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/uucp/Poll DESCRIPTION
The /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file contains information for polling remote computers. Each entry in the Poll file contains the name of a remote computer to call, followed by a <TAB> character, and a sequence of hourly intervals expressed in digits. These are the hourly intervals at which the local system polls a remote system; you must specify interval times as digits between 0 and 23. The format of entries in the Poll file is: sys-name<TAB>hour Note that you must be logged in as root to edit the Poll file, which is owned by the uucp login ID. The Poll file is used with the crontabs/uucp file, the uudemon.hour script, and the uudemon.poll script. Together, these files are respon- sible for initiating automatic calls to remote systems to perform certain maintenance tasks. EXAMPLES
The following example provides polling of computer eagle every 4 hours: eagle 0 4 8 12 16 20 The follwing example provides polling of computer hera every hour: hera 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 FILES
