ARRL 10 Mhz and Up Contest
About
New scoring rules in effect for 2023!
Distance point multipliers for each band have been added to encourage contacts
on the higher microwave bands. Contacts on bands higher than 10 GHz will now
accrue greater distance points. In addition, single-band "Best DX" and
single-band "Top Score" certificates or endorsements will be awarded for each
individual band (Individual single-band top scores are to be based on distance
points only). See the contest rules at
contests.arrl.org/ContestRules/10-GHz-Rules.pdf for more details.
Contest Objective: For North American amateurs to contact as many amateur
stations in as many different locations as possible in North America on bands
from 10-GHz through Light. Amateurs are encouraged to operate from more than
one location during this event. See the detailed rules for restrictions.
Dates:Third full weekend of August and September (August 19-20, 2023 and
September 16-17, 2023).
Contest Period: Each weekend begins at 6:00 AM local Saturday though 12:00
midnight local Sunday.
Contest Rules are now maintained as a single downloadable document.
