South Pacific 160m Contest
==========================
<Rules 2000/12.99>


When: 0500-2359z
In this contest, which is scheduled for the third full weekend of July each
year, the objective is for VK, ZL and P2 stations to work as many local and
overseas stations as possible on 160m. DX stations are also encouraged to
participate, but can only work VK, ZL, and P2.
{03SAT07:0500:1139}

Sections are Phone, CW, and SWL (all single operator). Exchange RS(T) plus
serial number. Stations should claim 2 points per QSO with their own call
area, or 5 points per QSO for all other call areas. For VK and ZL entrants:
if the number in your callsign differs from your actual location, please
follow your callsign with the appropriate numeral to indicate your location.

The multiplier is the number of VK and ZL call areas worked, plus the number
of DXCC countries worked. The final score equals the total QSO points times
the multiplier.

Certificates will be awarded to the top scoring stations in each section, in
each call area of VK and ZL, and each DXCC country. Send your log, signed
summary sheet, details of your station, and any comments to: "John Litten
ZL1AAS, Onemana Post, Whangamata, New Zealand" to be received within 6 weeks
after the end of the contest. For 1996, this is 2 September. Logs on disk
are most welcome.
