27.-28.10.2018 from 00.00 to 24.00 UTC is CQWW DX CONTEST SSB. Connections are established with all stations. Bands: 1.8, 3.5, 7, 14, 21, 28 MHz.
For all categories, all RXs and TXs used by a competitor must be placed in a circle with a diameter of 500 m. The condition for all High Power categories is that the total power must not be greater than 1500 W on any band, while the power is measured at the PA output. All antennas used in the contest must be physically cabled to the transmitters and receivers used in the contest. It is not possible to use the same tag for multiple categories.
A remote station is defined as a set of transmitters, receivers and antennas located in a circle with a diameter of 500 m. Remote receivers outside the specified circle are prohibited. Spotting your own brand or requesting spotting by other stations is prohibited.
When using two or more transmitters on one band, it MUST be hardware-secured so that only one signal can be on the band at the same time. Pairing of two or more transmitters in alternating calling of the challenge
is prohibited.
Tiež je zakázané robiť pokontestovéúpravy a opravy značiek v logu na základe rôznych databáz, záznamov, emailov a pod. V denníku musí byť zapísaná taká značka, akú operátor vyšle počas spojenia. Pre stanice ITU Regiónu 1 (patrí tam aj OM a OK) platí zákaz vysielania mimo povolených pásiem, to znamená v pásme 40 m nad 7200 kHz a v pásme 160 m pod 1810 kHz.

Categories
A. SINGLE OPERATOR – operátor vykonáva sám všetky činnosti súvisiace s prevádzkou a logovaním spojení. Operátori v kategórii SOAB môžu meniť pásma kedykoľvek. V ľubovoľnom čase je dovolený len jeden vysielaný signál.
1. SOAB (HP, LP, QRP) – is prohibited to use DX cluster, skimmer and other ancillary networks and technologies
2. SOSB (HP, LP, QRP) - it is forbidden to use DX cluster, skimmer and other auxiliary networks and technologies
3. SOAB Assisted (HP, LP, QRP) – it is allowed to use DX cluster, skimmer and other auxiliary
networks and technologies
4. SOSB Assisted (HP, LP, QRP) – it is allowed to use DX cluster, skimmer and other auxiliary
networks and technologies
B. SINGLE OPERATOR OVERLAY – každý účastník Categories SO môže v logu vyznačiť jednu z OVERLAY kategórií. Urobí tak vložením riadku z nadpisom CATEGORY-OVERLAY do hlavičky Cabrillo logu.
1. Classic Operator (CLASSIC) – the operator uses only one TCVR, nevyužíva DX cluster a podobné siete a môže v konteste pracovať max. 24 hodín. Ak má v logu zaznamenanú prevádzku dlhšiu ako 24 hodín, bude sa mu počítať len prvých 24 hodín. Použitý TCVR nesmie byť schopný počúvať počas vysielania. Stanice Assisted nebudú hodnotené v tejto
category.
2. Rookie (ROOKIE) – the operator has a license that has not expired on the day of the contest
three years. The date of issue of the first concession must be stated in the SOAPBOX field of the journal.
C. MULTI OPERATOR (only all bands) - it is allowed to use DX cluster, skimmer and other auxiliary networks and technologies. The number of operators is not limited. Only one broadcast signal is allowed on one band at any given time.
1. Single TX (HP, LP) (MULTI-ONE) – in any 10-minute period it is allowed to work on only one band and with only one transmitter (= run TX). The beginning of the 10-minute interval is counted from the establishment of the first connection on the respective band. Exception: it is allowed to make a connection on one additional band, but only if it is a new multiplier (= multiplier TX). Even here, however, the 10-minute rule must be observed, i.e. that the multiplier on the next band can only be done after ten minutes have passed. A multiplier transmitter cannot call a challenge. In the electronic diary, for each connection, it must be indicated which TX made it (run or multiplier).
2. Two TX (MULTI-TWO): Sú dovolené max. dva vysielané signály na dvoch rôznych pásmach súčasne. Obidva vysielače môžu nadväzovať spojenia so všetkými stanicami. V denníku musí byť pri každom spojení uvedené, ktorý vysielač spojenie urobil. Každý z vysielačov má dovolených max. 8 zmien pásma v ľubovoľnej celej hodine From 00 do 59 min.
3. Multi TX (MULTI-UNLIMITED): It is allowed to work simultaneously on all six
bands. Only one transmitter is allowed on each band.
Competition code
RS(T) + WAZ zone (OM, OK = 15)
Multipliers
Earth DXCC/WAE plus IG9/IH9 and WAZ zones on each band separately. /MM stations are counted only as a zone multiplier.
Scoring
connection with EU station = 1 b.
connection with a DX station = 3 b.
connection with own country = 0 b.
Diaries
Sa posielajú vo formáte Cabrillo cez webové rozhranie na www.cqww.com/logcheck/.
The diary can also be sent by email to the address: ssb@cqww.com (SSB part), or cw@cqww.com (CW part). In the title of the e-mail message, state only your contest brand. The server will automatically confirm receipt of your journal. Paper diaries are sent to: CQ WW DX Contest, P. O.Box 481, New Carlisle, OH 45344, USA. Diaries treba
send within five days after the contest, i.e. until 2 November 2018 23.59 UTC (SSB), or 30/11/2018 23.59 UTC (CW).
Recordings
Each station in the SO category, which has the ambition to place in the top five of the overall or continental ranking, must make an audio recording of the entire contest operation, as heard by the operator. The evaluator has the right to request a recording within 120 days of the deadline for sending the logs.
