Competition conditions of the Christmas race
The Christmas race is always organized by Radio Club OK1KHK December 26 in two stages, namely 8:00 - 11:00 and 12:00 - 15:00 UTC.
It is raced in a band 144 MHz CW, SSB and FM.
Invitation to race: "CQ TEST" / "Challenge Christmas Race".
Competition code RS / RST, sequence number QSO and LOC (eg: 59 001 JO70WE). In both stages, the sequence numbers of the connection continue continuously (So the second stage does not start with QSO 001 - if you participated in the 1st stage). In each stage, it is possible to establish only one QSO with the stations, regardless of the type of operation (therefore, it is possible to repeat the QSO in the second stage).
The competing station must complete the race in both stages from the same station QTH.
Scoring: for 1km spanning distances = 1 point. For QSO in own LOC = 1 point.
The race is advertised for the SINGLE and MULTI category for OK / OM stations. Result lists for both categories will be created together for OK / OM. QSOs with other foreign stations into the race are counted if they transmit the prescribed code. Logs of foreign stations will be used for control.
It is not possible to use DX cluster, chat ON4KST and so on. It also does not pay for QSOs through the transmitter.
