OM SSB race

Date: The race takes place on the third Saturday in September from 04,00 do 06,00 UTC, t.j. from 06,00 do 08,00 throw. summer time, in two one-hour stages. At each stage, it is possible to establish one valid connection with the same station on each band. Connections are established with stations from OM and OK. At the same time as the OM SSB race, the OK SSB race also takes place, and connections with the participants of this race also apply.

Bands: The race takes place in the 80m and 160m bands in these segments:

SSB: 1840–1950 kHz, 3700–3770 kHz

Categories:

– both bands, performance according to permit conditions

– both bands, power to 100 W

– listeners

Competition code: A code consisting of RS, serial number of the connection and the district emblem, e.g.. 59 001 BAC. It is necessary to follow the exact form of the code when broadcasting and writing to the log, otherwise, the connection will be evaluated as faulty.

Scoring: Each established connection is evaluated by one point. The connection is invalid, if the station has any error in the log in the received tag or in the received code.

Multipliers: Multipliers are districts, they are calculated for each band and for each stage separately (one district can be counted at most as 4 multipliers – 1. stage 80 m, 2. stage 80 m, 1. stage 160 m, 2. stage 160 m). Own district is not counted as a multiplier. Multipliers are also districts of OK stations.

The result: The total result is calculated by multiplying the sum of the connection points by the total number of multipliers.

Diaries: Logs are sent len in the format Cabrillo. Logs must be sent no later than 14 days after the race via the web interface on the page kv.szr.sk, section OM SSB races. If the station does not send a log for evaluation (at least for control), the connection to this station will only be counted if, that it appears in at least five dailies.
