> The sum of QSO/points from all bands times the sum of multipliers from
> all bands.
> 
> SWL
> Listeners are required to log the callsigns of both the 
> station heard and
> the correspondent station. Score is calculated based only 
> upon the station
> heard using the same rules as trasmitting stations. A callsign may not
> appear more than 3 (three) times as a correspondent 
> regardless of mode.
> SWLs MUST log no more than 1 (one) QSO on each line of their log.
> 
> LOGS and SUMMARY SHEET
> Paper logs: separate logs are necessary for each band. Logs must show
> all the QSOs data. A summary sheet is required showing all the scoring
> details, class of entry, name, callsign, full address of the 
> applicant, 
> callsign
> of other operators and a signed declaration. Logs must be 
> mailed within
> 30 days from the end of the contest and addressed to: ARI DX Contest,
> c/o ARI, Via Scarlatti 31, 20124 Milano, Italy.
> 
> Logs on diskette are really very welcome and accepted in 
> substitution of
> paperlogs. Please send us your log on diskette. Accepted formats are:
> N6TR, K1EA, EI5DI, UA1AAF, WF1B, OH2GI, DL4RCK, Writelog, Cabrillo,
> (see the Software page on our website for more details).
> A printed summary sheet must always be enclosed.
> 
> Alternatively, logs in ASCII format (or as attached files) 
> may be sent via
> e-mail addressed to <aricontest at kkn.net>. You will receive an
> acknowledgement of receipt of your log within 48 hours.
> 
> PENALTIES and DISQUALIFICATIONS
> Logs will be carefully checked by the Contest Committee and mistakes
> may cause a score reduction.
> Disqualification may apply for: excessive number of unmarked 
> duplicates
> (more than 2%), violation of the "10 minutes rule" (either 
> for band and
> mode), excessive declared score, log without the summary 
> sheet. Instead
> to disqualify a log, the Committee may decide to penalize it 
> by erasing a
> percentage of its score.
> 
> AWARDS
> A plaque with a certificate will be awarded to the top 
> scoring station in each
> class. Special plaques can be awarded by the Contest 
> Committee if country/
> continental/call-area partecipation will justify the decision. A 
> certificate will be
> awarded to No. 2, 3, 4, 5 top scoring stations in each class 
> as well as to the
> top scoring stations in each country in each class.
> 
> FREE SOFTWARE
> A brand new software to handle ARI DX Contest has been 
> written by UA1AAF.
> It can be used on real-time or either after the contest. It 
> sends CW with the
> usual interfaces and it can be used in both K1EA or N6TR modes. It is 
> shareware
> and it can be sent downloaded from 
<http://www.qsl.net/contest_ari> or from
the Contest section on <www.ari.it>.
