if you can cope with looking at a clock before dialling, yes; otherwise
no, not without something like an Orchid dialler and an appropriate set
of prefixes combined with a matching dialplan in the spa

For that matter, is it possible to achieve this with any other ATA?
(Short of looking at the clock for the time, or at the calendar for
the day of the week? Some of us really are more distracted than
others...)

With its power off the SPA 3102 defaults to PSTN
Get a digital mains timer and set it so it is on all week but cut the power
over the weekend - these timer plugs can be picked up quite cheaply - low
tech answer but it should work!

In my case, that's good enough for outgoing calls to landline numbers,
only; doesn't work for calls to mobiles, neither for incoming VoIP
calls :-(
Maybe the SPA-3103 wil do it, or some other manufacturer sees a niche
there ;-)

Well, as someone suggested, you could use an Orchid dialler.
Programmed appropriately, in conjunction with the dial plan, it would
be easy to switch providers according to charge period.
I think some people have stated that they do this. I haven't tried it
with my Sipura SPA-3000 because I have had no need to do it. However,
I did try it with a Fritzbox but got misbehaviour problems.

An orchid dialler box is very cheap. It's the obvious solution, except
that unless you use the version with a PSU, you may lose incoming CLI.

Not always true. I have the PSU version. I lose CLI. :-(

Ah, but is there a PSU powering it? I found that the PSU version with no
PSU running is no better.

Yes it was powering it. Since changing phones to a much smarter one I
have taken it out of circuit.
