Open (O) |
This section is for portable stations and multi-operator fixed stations. |

6 hours Single Op Fixed (6S) |
Rules as per section "SF" except stations may only operate for a maximum of 6 hours. Entrants may choose between any continuous 6 hour period in which to operate (e.g. 1500-2100, or 1917-0117) or alternatively split the 6 hour period into any number of segments as long as they are separated by at least 1 hour off time. In order to increase activity we recommend the following times to operate in this section 1900-2100 UTC Sat and 0700-0900 and 1200-1400 UTC on the Sunday. Operation after this 6 hour window is allowed but will not count for points. All contacts must be included in the log. Serial numbers must start at 001 for this 6 hour period, and you cannot enter both this section and the full contest. In multi-band contests the same single 6 hour period must be used on all bands. |
