Hej
Ja, så er det ved at være contest-tid igen - den kommende weekend bringer jo
nemlig den årlige NRAU test!
Jeg håber at deltagelsen i år bliver god fra OZ. Det kunne være meget fint
at hoppe et skridt op på listen i lande-konkurrencen så vi kunne komme foran
ES!! Jeg selv bliver QRV fra OZ7YY's QTH, og håber at sige hej til mange
OZ'ere.
Glem ikke at sende loggen til Peter OZ5WQ, der jo er log-manager i år.
Hvor mange andre her på listen har planer om at deltage?
Herunder kommer først resultaterne for sidste år, og derefter dette års
regler:
Vi høre på 80 og 40 meter.

Her kommer så reglerne:
NRAU - Baltic Contest
---------------------
ex NRAU contest
(NEW RULES from 2000)
Objective:
For amateurs in Nordic and Baltic countries (ES, JW, JX, LA, LY,
OH, OHØ, OX, OY, OZ, SM, TF, and YL) to contact each other.
This competition is for individual contesters. At the same time
we will also have competition between the nations (JW/Svalbard
and JX/Jan Mayen count for LA/Norway and OHØ/Aland for OH/Finland
in this contest).
Dates/Times:
Sunday morning of the 2nd full weekend in January each year.
In year 2001:
CW: Sunday 14-Jan-2000 0530 - 0730 UTC
SSB: Sunday 14-Jan-2000 0800 - 1000 UTC
Note! Both CW- and SSB-parts are independent contests.
Frequencies:
(Only 80 and 40 meters)
CW: 3510-3560 and 7010-7040 kHz.
SSB: 3600-3650, 3700-3775 and 7040-7090 kHz
PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE FREQUENCY LIMITS!
Classes:
A – CW
B – SSB
Only single operator. A clubstation may only be operated by one and
the same person during the whole contest.
Also mixed-mode results (CW + SSB) will be listed.
Country Competition:
The total sum of best ten (10) CW scores and best ten (10) SSB scores
in each country will represent each country score. The results of the
country competition will also be listed.
Contest call:
CQ NRAU de ---
Message:
RS(T) + serial number starting from 001 + 2 letters showing
Amt / Fylke / Län / Province / Region, e.g. 59(9)001 VN.
(See abbreviations at the end of the rules).
Note: Use different serial numbers for CW and SSB as they are two
separate contests.
Points:
Each station can be contacted once per band both on CW and SSB,
i.e. two times in each part. Every correct two-way QSO with ES, JW,
JX, LA, LY, OH, OHØ, OX, OY, OZ, SM, TF and YL gives 2 points.
A QSO with wrong received message gives you only 1 point.
A QSO with a station not submitting a log will not give any points,
unless that station is found in at least ten (10) other logs.
Multipliers:
Each worked Amt / Fylke / Län / Region etc. on each band and mode
gives one (1) multiplier. (See the multiplier list below.).
I.e. the multipliers are counted separately on CW and SSB.
A QSO with a station not submitting a log will not give a multiplier,
unless that station is found in at least ten (10) other logs.
Final score:
Score = (sum of QSO-points) x (sum of multipliers worked
on the two bands).
Separate final scores for CW and SSB.
Log-format:
Send separate logs for CW and SSB.
Electronic logs on diskette or via e-mail are preferred and strongly
recommended. Paper logs are also accepted.
Note: At least TRLog logging program supports NRAU. TRLog users
should update the NRAU.DOM file (multiplier file for NRAU
Contest in TRLog) to include the new multipliers.
The updated contents of NRAU.DOM file is listed below.
The logs (electronic or paper logs) should contain the following
information:
At the top of each page:
- Callsign used
- Class
Every QSO row should contain the following information
(preferably in this order):
- Date
- Time in UTC
- Station (callsign) worked
- Full sent message (RST + serial qso number
+ region abbreviation, e.g. 599 001 AA)
- Full received message
- Band
- Mode
- Multiplier (if a multiplier QSO)
- QSO-points
- Duplicate mark (if a duplicate QSO)
Duplicate QSOs must be clearly recognized and marked with zero (0)
points in the log. If the Contest Committee finds an unmarked dupe,
the sum of QSO points will be reduced worth five (5) QSOs.
Summary sheet:
A summary sheet must always be submitted for each entry
(i.e. separate summary sheets for CW and SSB).
The summary sheet must contain the following information:
- Name of the contest
- Contest date
- Callsign used
- Operator's name (+ operator's callsign, if it is not the same
as the callsign used in contest)
- Class (A or B)
- Number of QSOs per each band
- Number of duplicate QSOs per each band
- Sum of QSO points per each band
- Number of multipliers per each band
- Total number of QSOs
- Total number of duplicates
- Total QSO points
- Total number of multipliers
- Final score
The summary sheet must also contain the declaration (below)
with signature and the mailing address. In e-mail logs also the
summary sheet may be in electronic form.
Declaration:
Include the following signed declaration in your summary sheet:
"I have observed all competition rules as well as regulations for
amateur radio in my country. My report is correct and true to the
best of my knowledge. I agree to be bound by the decisions of the
Contest Committee".
Electronic logs:
IBM/MS-DOS PC-standard computerized logs are highly recommended
to be submitted on diskette logs (3,5"). Used database format is not
critical, but it must be an ASCII-file. For example TRlog-files and
ARRL log-standard are accepted.
Basic rules:
Only one QSO / row. Each row must contain the information described
in the Log-format section.
If you send your log and summary sheet on diskette, no paper log
nor summary sheet is necessary.
The diskette must be clearly labelled with your contest callsign,
contest name, class and date of the contest. CW and SSB portions
can be on the same diskette. A SASE is needed if you want your
diskette returned.
Use the following standard (callsign.mode) for naming the log files:
CW: OH2XYZ.CW (CW-log), OH2XYZ_S.CW (CW-summary)
SSB: OH2XYZ.SSB (SSB-log), OH2XYZ_S.SSB (SSB-summary)
Awards:
Awards to the first three on CW and SSB in each country.
Also the best five CW+SSB participants will be awarded (both CW
and SSB contests must have been participated).
Additional or fewer awards depending on the number of contestants.
Every participating country can on their own judgement award
additional prices.
Disqualification:
For every unmarked duplicate QSO found by the Contest Committee
the total QSO points will be reduced worth five (5) similar QSOs.
If the log shows more than 2% unmarked dupes, the log will be
disqualified.
Violation of the contest rules or the regulations for amateur radio
in your country as well as unsportsmanslike behaviour can also lead
to disqualification.
Address:
The arrangement alternates between SSA, NRRL, EDR and SRAL
in that order. For correct mailing and e-mail addresses see
the invitation each year.
In 2001 the logs go to EDR:
