UK/EI DX CW Contest | |
For
a number of years, the RSGB has been concerned that members’
participation in its annual October HF DX Contest (and in the 21/28
events that proceeded it), has not been adequate to justify an
international event of many hours duration. For that reason we have
chosen to enter a partnership with the organisers of the two UK/EI DX
Contests (CW and SSB) and to incorporate these contests in the RSGB HF
contest calendar, while discontinuing the DX Contest. The contest is adjudicated by the UK/EI DX adjudication team and the results are published both on the UK/EI website and on the RSGB HF Contest Website. |
|
1. Objective |
The
aim of this contest is to promote contacts between stations in the U.K.
and Ireland (UK/EI) and stations in the rest of the world (DX). |
2. Date & Time | Saturday
27th April - Sunday 28th April 2024 1200 - 1200 UTC QSOs will not be accepted at or past the end time |
Frequency: 3.5, 7, 14, 21 and 28 MHz Mode: CW only Only one signal may be transmitted at any one time. Exchange: RST + Serial number + 2-letter
District Code. The 155 UK and EI district codes are almost, but not
entirely, aligned with Postcodes, so entrants should check carefully
that they are sending the correct District Code. For example, stations
in Northern Ireland have six possbile District Codes, not just BT. The Full rules are available on the UKEICC
website |
