 The QRP-Contest-Community (qrpcc) cordially is inviting to the


              47th  O R I G I N A L  -  Q R P  -  C O N T E S T  ( OQRPC )
              -----------------------------------------------------------

 The contest idea is to promote creative or unconventional QRP-hamming like
 homebrewing or just doing it without your usual 'luxurious' QRO equipment.

 This event more than other contests has a meeting character.
 The result lists show that many operators are taking part only for just an
 hour or two with a singleband homebrew rig without any intention of high
 scoring or even winning.
 But if they want to prove that QRP operators may be keen operators they are
 invited to do so as well.

                           - . . . -

Participants:  Operators of original QRP rig, commercial or homebrew,
               including QRP rig exceeding 5w output like IC-703, SG 2020,
               FT-7, K2 e.a. and QRP-versions of industrial
               QRO-transceivers like TS-130 V, FT-707S etc..
               Stations with QRO-equipment (>20W out) temporarily reduced
               to QRP will be listed as checklog.

 Date:         28th/29th D E C E M B E R 2019 
               -------------------------------------


        04th/05th July 2020
        02nd/03rd January 2021
        02rd/04th July 2021
        01st/02nd January 2022
        02nd/03rd July 2022
        07th/08th January 2023

 Time:         Saturday 1500 UTC till Sunday 1500 UTC,
               9 hours minimum rest period in one or two parts.
               More pauses as you like but the two longest breaks together
               need to be at least 9 hours long

 Frequencies:  CW segments of the 80-, 40-, and 20m band.

 Call:         CQ  OQRP (= Original QRP)

 Categories:   V L P  (1W out or 2W in)        Q R P  (5W out or 10W in)
               M P  (20W out or 40W in)        (No QRO-category)

 Operation:    Single-op CW. Various TX/TRX may be operated,
               but only one at the same time.

 Exchange:     RST, serial-no./ category e.g. 559001/VLP.
               Exchange of RST is sufficient with stations not in contest.

 QSO-Points:   The log checker will count 4 points for a qso with another
               contest station whose log has come in.
               All other QSO count 1 point.

 NEW   NEW   NEW   NEW   NEW:      HANDMADE - BONUS
--------------------------------------------------

Promoting the creative aspects of QRP the usage of equipment
homemade by the operator will be rewarded by a 15% bonus of QSO points
for a TX or TRX assembled from a kit, and by a 30% bonus for an unique
individual handmade TX or TRX.
The Handmade Bonus may be claimed for single bands
while commercial equipment was used on the remaining band(s).

Options for claiming Handmade Bonus points are prepared on the
summary sheet specimen on .
Otherwise (e-logs) the operator has to give a declaration like:
"In the QQRPC I used a kit assembled / an indvidual unique TX resp.TRX
 built by myself on 80m / 40m / 20m".
(Please delete as applicable)

Multiplier:    The log checker will count 2 multiplier points for each
               DXCC-country (+ IT9) from a qso with a station whose log has
               come in. Otherwise each DXCC-country counts 1 MP point.

Final score:   Sum of QSO-points multiplied by the sum of multiplier
               points. (Calculated by the log checker. Don't try an own
               calculation: you cannot foresee who will send his log and
               who will not).

So every log is welcome and important, even just 3 QSO on a picture
postcard
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Logs:       e-mail logs for electronic checking if possible in STF- or
            Cabrillo format to

            for turning "ugly" paper logs into e-mail logs.

            "32nd OQRPC log by G9XYZ" !
            Don't forget possibly to apply for Homemade Bonus points.

            In paper logs list QSO sorted bandwise, please.
            (Otherwise you might find your log listed as checklog!)
            Add the DXCC prefix if you claim a multiplier for a QSO.

Summary sheet:
            The use of the specimen on http://www.qrpcc.de
            is very much recommended.

            each band according to manufacturer or measured under
            contest conditions. Homebrew TX/TRXs description at least
            should name the basic principle (e.g. superheterodyne with
            IF or "straight set" like VFO-BU-PA) with pa transistor or
            -tube and possibly a reference (e.g. SPRAT No.&page)
