Please Spread The Word!

Purpose : This contest is intended to test the viability of DominoEX
as a digital contest mode,  since it compares favourably to RTTY 
and may better  under certain conditions. Digital mode experimenters and 
RTTY contesters are encouraged to participate and provide feedback

Exchange:          RS(T) report plus a progressive contact three-digit serial
                           number starting with 001 for the first contact. Your 
log MUST show the
                           correct serial number sent and received for each 
contact.

QSO Points:      Contacts between stations on different continents are worth 
three(3) points on 28, 21, and 14 MHz and six (6) points on 7
                           and 3.5 MHz.2. Contacts between stations on the same 
continent but in different countries, and contacts with maritime mobile 
stations, are
                           worth two (2)points on 28, 21, and 14 MHz and four 
(4) points on 7 and 3.5 MHz.3. Contacts between stations in the same country 
are                                    worth  one(1)point on 28, 21, and 14 
MHz, and two (2) points on 7 and 3.5 MHz.IX. .

Multipliers:        The multiplier is the number of "valid" prefixes worked.  A 
prefix is counted only once regardless of the number of times the same prefix 
is                                       worked.1. A prefix is the 
letter/numeral combination which forms the first part of the amateur call. 
Examples: N8, W8, AB8, DL5, DJ2, HG1,                                   
WD200,WF96, 3DAØ, GB75, ZS66, U3, etc. Any difference in the 
numbering,lettering, or order of same shall constitute a separate prefix

Score Calculation:  Single Operator: All Band score = total contact points from 
all bands multiplied by the number of different prefixes         worked (prefix 
multiplier; prefixes are counted only once).   Single Band score = total 
contact points on the band entered multiplied by the number of different 
prefixes worked (prefix multiplier).
