Dear Contester, Warm greetings from the EUDX Contest Committee! We are thrilled to extend an invitation to you for the upcoming EUDX Contest scheduled to take place on 3-4 February 2024. Over the past few years, the EUDX Contest has witnessed remarkable growth in participation. In the 2023 edition, we were delighted to receive a record-breaking 1981 logs, a significant leap from the 1281 logs in 2022. Notably, 1226 logs emanated from European Union stations, while 755 logs were contributed by DX stations. A fascinating observation was the fact that nearly two-thirds of the submissions flooded in within the initial 24 hours of the contest, culminating in an impressive total of 493,000 QSOs. Encouraged by this overwhelming response, our goal for the 2024 edition is to surpass 2000 logs, aiming for even greater heights. The contest, spanning 24 hours and conducted in both SSB and CW modes, is slated to occur on the first full weekend of February. The primary objective of the contest is to establish contacts with European Union regions, each contact fetching 10 points/QSO, serving as both a multiplier and a scoring element. However, given the international scope of the competition, participants are also encouraged to make QSOs with stations worldwide. Our diverse range of categories ensures that participants can choose the category that best aligns with their preferences. The exchange information for European regions comprises the RST report and the distinctive code of each European call area, consisting of two letters and two numbers (available on the rules page). For other stations, the exchange will include RST and the ITU Zone. As we gear up for this exciting event, we invite you to join us with enthusiasm and passion, celebrating the spirit of friendly competition under the emblem of the European flag. We look forward to the opportunity to connect with you during the contest. Wishing you the best of luck and anticipating your active participation! more info here: https://www.eudx-contest.com/ Best regards, 73 Francesco IK6QON EUDX Contest Manager
