Band and bandplan:
Activity must take place on 11m band. The section of the band between .500 and .600 included (so called DX part) cannot be used for QSO. In fact, our special stations will operate on the basis of this bandplan. Participants are encouraged to comply with current legislation regarding the use of their equipment and the allocated band.
Scoring:
Hunters can only make QSO with special Event Stations once and the two sessions are considered as a single "on air" event.
Exchange and Validity of contacts:
There is no serial number system (no progressive numbers).
Just 59 or 599, in the log.
The validity of the QSO will be verified by our softwares. There is no need for hunters to submit their log: QSO will be confirmed based on the special event stations logs.
Certificate download:
On the end of the event all hunters can dowload their participation certificate (full color award A4) by 1AT074 Max from the AT Portal. ( Download 2022 certificate: https://www.athq.org/wrd/ - https://www.athq.org/imd/ )
