EUROPEAN WORLD-WIDE EME CONTEST 2005 Sponsored by DUBUS and REF The EU WW EME contest is intended to encourage world-wide activity on moonbounce. Multipliers are DXCC countries plus all W/VK/VE states. 1. Contest Dates & Bands: First weekend, APRIL 16/17, 00 - - 24 UTC: 50 MHz, 1.3 GHz, 10 GHz, 24 GHz and up Second weekend, MAY 14/15, 00 - - 24 UTC: 144 MHz, 2.3 GHz and 3.4 GHz Third weekend, JUNE 11/12, 00 - - 24 UTC: 432 MHZ and 5.7 GHz
2. Sections and Awards: QRP 144MHz <100kW EIRP 432MHz <400kW EIRP 1296MHz <600kW EIRP >= 2300MHz no separate QRP/QRO categories QRO On 144, 432 and 1296MHz, stations with EIRP equal to or greater than stated above. PRO Non-amateur equipment or antenna. PRO stations will have scores listed separately. CW All QSOs in CW mode – no other modes used DIG All QSOs in digital mode (e.g. all the “JT” modes) – no other modes used MIX QSOs in CW and digital modes or any other mode Assisted (ASS): Stations using liaison by any other means (eg DXcluster, logger, internet, telephone) must indicate this and will be marked with an asterisk after their callsign in the result tables. ASS is not a separate section. Also there are no separate multi-operator classes. Multi-operator and QRO stations will be highlighted in the general classifications. All QRP/QRO band winners and QRP/QRO multiband winners will receive a year's free subscription to DUBUS magazine. In each band/section, certificates will be sent to the top five entries and to the highest-scoring station in the southern hemisphere. 4. Contest Exchange: For a valid QSO, both stations must transmit and receive both callsigns+ TMO/RST/xxdB + R. There is no restriction on modes, but entrants must not cause inter-mode QRM. 5. Logs: Logs must be separate for each band, and should be in normal "logbook" format. Top line: Your callsign, Band Each QSO: Date/time, Callsign, Report sent, Report received, Points, Multiplier Bottom line: Total points, Total multipliers, Total claimed score. 5. QSO Points: 100 points for each random QSO completed. 10 (ten) points for each sked QSO completed on 144/432/1296MHz. 100 points for each random or sked QSO completed on 2.3GHz or higher bands. 6. Multipliers: Each DXCC country (except W/VE/VK), or EACH INDIVIDUAL STATE worked in W/VE/VK. States and provinces can be determined after the contest using recent Newsletters, on the Web or in DUBUS. 7. Total Scores: Single band score = [Total of QSO points]* [Total of multipliers]. There will be one QRP winner and one QRO winner on each band. Multiband score = [(Total sum of points on 144-1296MHz) + (2 * total sum of points on 2.3GHz or above)] * [Total sum of multipliers on all bands] There will be one QRP multiband winner and one QRO multiband winner. Multiband stations will also be listed as an entry on each separate band worked, and can also win single-band awards. 8. Contest Entries: Copy of the log for each band with details of points, multipliers and total points. The following information MUST also be included for each band: 1. Output power, transmit cable loss, antenna type and gain. 2. Categories: QRO/QRP - single/multi operator - ASSisted – mode CW/DIG/MIX 3. Name(s) of all operators 4. Locator/State. Other info is welcome: Comments, conditions, locator, station details, photographs, etc. 9.
