Hello worldwide HF contesters
This coming weekend March 31st/April 1st 2018 is the annual 24 hour UK/EI DX CW contest. Everyone can work everyone, with two types of Multipler (a) UK & EI District Codes and (b) DXCC countries.
This contest runs from 1200-1200z with UK and EI stations sending RST (optional) + Serial number + two-letter district code. Stations outside of the UK and EI send RST (optional) + Serial number.
CW on 80m to 10m – there are 12 hour and 24 hour sections and other interesting features such as a 'Real Time Scoreboard', a remote operating category, 'single element antenna' overlay and a simplified multi-op category designed with club operation in mind.
The log submission deadline is 24 hours after the end of the contest – the adjudication software then allows the provisional Results to be online 20 minutes after this deadline.
The overall winner will be awarded the magnificent Kenwood Cup (sponsored by Kenwood UK) – there are plaques and certificates for other section winners.
