The Christmas race is organized by the radio club OK1KHK každoročne 26. decembra v dvoch etapách, a to od 8:00 do 11:00 UTC a od 12:00 do 15:00 UTC. Súťaží sa v pásme 144 MHz s druhmi prevádzky CW, SSB a FM.
Výzva do závodu: „CQ TEST" / "Challenge Christmas race".
Súťažný kód: RS/RST, poradové číslo QSO and locator (eg 59 001 JO70WE).
In both stages, the numbering of connections continues continuously (that is, in the second stage, the QSO number does not start from 001, if you participated in the first stage).
In each stage it is possible to follow up with stations iba jedno QSO, bez ohľadu na druh prevádzky (QSO je teda možné zopakovať v druhej etape).
The competing station must complete the race v oboch etapách z rovnakého QTH.
Scoring:
-
for 1 km bridged distance = 1 bod,
-
for QSO in own locator = 1 bod.
The race is listed for categories SINGLE a MULTI pre stanice OK/OM.
The result sheets for both categories will be processed spoločne pre OK/OM.
Connections with foreign stations are counted if they transmit the prescribed code. Foreign station logs will be used for checking.
Nie je povolené používať DX cluster, chat ON4KST a podobné prostriedky. Rovnako sa they do not count QSOs through transmitters.
