The objective of the contest is to establish as many contacts as possible between radio amateurs around the world and radio amateurs in Russia on BPSK63 mode. The Contest is annually held at the first weekend in October in BPSK63 mode on 160, 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10 meters bands. Every station can be contacted once per band. The operator may change the bands without any restrictions. The output power should not exceed 10 watts on 160 meters and 100 watts on other bands. Only one transmitted signal is permitted at any time.
2. Bands: EPC-RU recommends the following bands/frequencies - 160 meters (1.838 – 1.843 MHz), 80 meters (3.580 – 3.590 MHz), 40 meters (7.040 – 7.050 MHz), 20 meters (14.070 – 14.080 MHz), 15 meters (21.070 – 21.080 MHz), and 10 meters (28.070 – 28.080 MHz).
3. Categories:
SOAB [Single operator, all bands. Those stations at which one performs all of the operating, logging, and spotting functions. Only one signal is allowed at any one time. The operator may change bands at any time.]
SOAB-LF [Single operator, 160, 80 and 40 meters. Those stations at which one performs all of the operating, logging, and spotting functions. Only one signal is allowed at any one time. The operator may operate on 160, 80 and 40 meters only.]
SOAB-HF [Single operator, 20, 15 and 10 meters. Those stations at which one performs all of the operating, logging, and spotting functions. Only one signal is allowed at any one time. The operator may operate on 20, 15 and 10 meters only.]
MOAB [Multi-operator station, all bands.] 4. Groups of Entrants: There are two separate groups of entrants: RUSSIA - All participants from the Russian Federation. WORLD - All the rest participants.
Note to subgroup SOAB: Participants in the subgroup SOAB may additionally declare in any of the two SOAB-LF or SOAB-HF categories (for example, R3BB SOAB and SOAB-HF. In this case do not send the second report). Participants who used to run SO2R must specify about this in the report.
Note to sub-MOAB: The team may include from 2 to 3 operators. It is desirable that they have individual or SWL callsigns. Individual callsigns must be specified in the report.
