second full weekend in may (ref:a.r.i., i2dmi)
contest period: 1200z saturday 13th to 1200z sunday 14th, 2000
(no rest periods required).
bands: 80, 40, 20, 15, and 10m.
classes: a1 - single op, all bands
a2/xx - single op, single band (xx = band)
b - multi-op, single transmitter
c - swl.
exchange: send: rst + qso nr. + cq zone nr.
multipliers: dxcc country list + each call area in vk,ve,ja,zl1-4
and w.
do not count vk,ve,ja,zl1-4 or usa as separate countries.
usa stations with callsign from one district but are now living in a
different district should give proper identification, i.e. k6wz/0.
the same multiplier counts again on a new band.
an additional multiplier is given for each intercontinental country
worked on at least four bands. contacts between stations within the same
country will not be valid, i.e. a w2 station can work w1, w3, w4, etc.
but
not w2. contacts made outside ones own continent on 80 or 10m count
double
qso points.
a contact with a station that would count as a multiplier will
be valid only if that station appears in at least 4 other logs, or a
contest
log is received from that station.
final score = total qso points x total mults (band mults + each
intercontinental country country worked on 4 bands) x total number of
qsos.
(pts x mults x qsos).
use exchange points table,revised october 1996 to determine points
scored
for each qso.
awards: a special trophy will be awarded to the top stations in each
class.
in addition, a certificate with special sticker to all entrants.
logs: use separate logsheets for each band. logs must show: band, date
and
time (utc), callsign and message sent and received, points and new
multiplier
prefix. summary sheet must show full scoring, and list of multipliers
worked.
multi operator logs must list names and callsigns of all operators.
