[CQ-Contest] 2009 OCEANIA DX PHONE CONTEST IS ON THIS WEEKEND

[Brian Miller]

Hi everyone

A final reminder that the 2009 Oceania DX PHONE contest is happening
this weekend.

The aim of this contest is to promote HF contacts with stations in the
Pacific and Oceania region. We are expecting a good turn out from VK,
ZL and YB stations, as well as stations from some of the rarer South
Pacific countries. Note that Oceania stations can work other Oceania
and non-Oceania stations. Non-Oceania stations can only work Oceania
stations.

Date/times: 08:00 UTC Saturday 3 October to 08:00 UTC Sunday 4
October.
Bands: 160M to 10M (excluding WARC bands).
Exchange: RS(T) + serial number.
QSO points: 20 points per QSO on 160M; 10 points on 80M; 5 points on
40M; 1 point on 20M; 2 points on 15M; and 3 points on 10M.

Final Score: The sum of the QSO points multiplied by the number of
prefixes worked (the same prefix can be counted once on each band).

Deadline: All logs must be emailed or postmarked NO LATER than 9
November 2009.

More information about the contest, including the detailed rules, is
available from the Oceania DX Contest web site at
