[RTTY] DRCG-WW-RTTY contest weekend 14./15.June

[GL-DJ3IW-Web]

Hello all RTTY contesters,

the weekend of 14/15 June will see the first run of the DRCG-WW-RTTY
contest.
Times are:
Saturday 0000 to 0759 UTC
Saturday 1600 to 2359 UTC
Sunday   0800 to 1559 UTC.
This contest replaces the DRCG Long Distance RTTY contest (LDC). For a
variety
of reasons the DRCG has decided to make changes to the LDC. Rules and all
pertinent information for the DRCG-WW-RTTY are available on our website
www.drcg.de.

First of all, the QSO points table zone<->zone remains unchanged!
The major changes  - besides the name - are:
- Deletion of the UTC in the contest exchange
  - old RST ZONE TIME,  new RST ZONE;
- Deletion of the continent multiplier;
- 40 and 80 meter QSOs now get more points
  - 40m QSO points x TWO(2),
  - 80m QSO points x THREE(3);
- Deletion of the SWL class and other simplifications of the rules.
