Every morning around 3:45 something happens on hobbit or our network that causes many very brief connection and http checks to fail. We haven't figured out why yet. So, to keep people from being paged needlessly, I tried to put time-limited badconn and badhttp checks in default line (ie. badhttp-*-0340-0400:1:2:3). But it doesn't seem to be working. Do I need to do that for every entry?

per the bb-hosts man page:

NOTE: The ".default." host entry will only accept the following tags - others are silently ignored: ......... Specifically, note that network tests, "badTEST" settings, and alternate pageset relations cannot be listed on the ".default." host.
