Period: from 00.00 UTC of 8 September 2007 to 24.00 UTC of 9 September 2007
Bands: 50 Mhz and up, only via Moon reflection
Modes: CW, SSB.
Categories for bands 144 and 432 MHz: stations are subdivided by power and type of antenna employed. For yagis the total lenght, in wavelenghts, is considered (distance reflector-last director multiplied by the number of yagis in the array), for parabolic reflectors the dish diameter is considered.
At 144MHz 1 wl = 2,08 meters = 82" = 6' 10"
At 432 MHz 1 wl = 0.694 meters = 27".340
Band 144 MHz (Cat. A, B, C, D, E, F)
Note: Stations with cross yagis or circular polarization are classified separately. For cross yagis counts the lenght of the longest. Yagi Dish
up to 5 wl A
>5 wl,up to 10 wl <7m (23') B
>10 wl,up to 20 wl <10m (33') C
>20 wl,up to 40 wl >10m (33') D
> 40 wl, up to 80 wl >14m (46') E
>over 80 wl F Band 432 MHz (A, B, C, D, E):
Yagi Dish
up to 18 wl A
>18 wl,up to 36 wl <3,05m (10') B
>36 wl,up to 72 wl <4,57m (15') C
>72 wl, up to 144 wl >4,57m (14') D
>over 144 wl E
Bands 50 MHz, 1,3 GHz and up: One category per band, independently from power and antenna.
Downclassing:
If the first of each category scores less than the first of the lower category, the whole category is moved into the lower. Points:
For bilateral qsos: 10 points, 31 points with italian stations,
10 points between italian stations.
Italian stations, and eventual foreigners operating in Italy, will be classified separately from the rest of the world.
SWLs: The station heard can be inserted as correspondent twice maximum. Points: 10 for each station heard in qso, 31 if italian. Prizes:
To the first of each cathegory. A certificate will be sent to all the partecipants who sent in the log. If somebody wins more than one cathegory, he gets only one prize and certificates for the other cathegories won, while the prize for these cathegories goes to the second placed and will be so inscribed.

(will be confirmed upon reception), or by mail to Mario Alberti - Via Privata Maralunga 12 - 19126 La Spezia - Italy.
Logs should be sent within 30 November 2007.
The log must contain a general section with Call, Name, Adress (including e-mail if had), QTH Locator, Band, Cathegory, PA Power, Antenna dimensions and type.
The qso log must contain Date, Hour, Mode, Call, Points, and Total Points. Comments and other info are welcome.
