_________________________________________________________________________________________

Sunday 8th October 2017
05:00 - 23:00 UTC 


The contest includes:


·      3.5, 7, 14, 21 and 28 MHz

·      12 and 18 hour categories

·      Entries may be CW only, SSB only or mixed

·      Scoring: UK&CD stations - 1 point per contact with UK&CD stations on any band, 2 points for non-UK contacts on 80m, 40m and 20m, 4 points for 15m and 6 points for 10m. Multipliers are the countries of the DXCC list, on each band and each mode, except that JA, W, VE, VK, ZL and ZS call areas count as separate countries, and the UK call areas do not count for multiplier credit.


The rules are available here.


The start of the contest overlaps for three hours with the Oceania Contest DX SSB leg promising some good DX contacts at the beginning. At the end of the contest – up to 2200 UTC - hopefully there will be propagation to California to allow some QSO party QSOs.


If you are not able to be QRV for the whole period please come on when you are able and submit a log to support this event.


Kind Regards,

Nick Totterdell G4FAL,

RSGB HF Contest Committee Chair
