Bands160, 80, 60, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, 11 and 10m
RulesYou can work all stations. Repeated QSOs with the same operator are valid on every new band. Multipliers are every unique prefixes of worked stations (UR5, 5B4, 14HS1, 19WO1, 43HS0 etc) and every new country and territory according to DXHS list.
Every multiplier is valid only one time during the contest. So if you worked for example 5B4AIT on 15 m, you can work with him on others bands, but multiplier 5B4 for 5B4AIT will be counting only once during the contest. Also you will receive 1 multiplier for Cyprus. So QSO with 5B4AIT will bring you 1 multiplier for prefix and 1 multiplier for country, totally 2 points for multipliers.
All contest contacts MUST be above 35kHz from the bottom of each band (example: 7.035 and up, 14.235 and up, 21.335 and up). Any contest contact made below the 35kHz contest band edge will not count.
Note that only confirmed QSOs will be valid. Do not forget about 15 minutes rule. 15 minutes must have passed before you can contact the same op on a different band.
