Vysielač: ONE, MULTI (only in the MULTI OP – MULTI TX category), SWL
DX cluster: The use of DX cluster is allowed in all categories. Transitions between bands are not limited.
Kód: RS(T) + sequence number of the connection starting with 001, the connections are numbered in each stage separately or continuously according to the operator's choice.
Násobiče: The last letter of the counter station's suffix (eg OK1NE = E). Multipliers are calculated on each band in each stage for each type of operation separately.
Body: 1 QSO = 1 point. Connections are calculated on each band in each stage and type of operation separately.
A connection to the same station can be established on each band in each stage once for each type of operation. In the CW category it is up to 4 competitive connections, in MIXED up to 8 connections.
Výsledok: The sum of points from both stages is multiplied by the sum of the multipliers from both stages.
SWL: Listeners can count each station only once per band, stage and type of operation. Each properly recorded QSO (date, UTC, band, station mark, contest code and counter station mark) = 1 point. The multiplier is the last letter of the suffix of the monitored station. Points and multipliers are calculated in the same way as for broadcast stations.
