A quick band change in order to work new multiplier is
allowed - it is OK to work one station and return to the main
band.

Only one QSO is allowed with the same station on the same
band (no matter traffic mode), i.e max. 5 QSOs with the same
station in the contest.

Cross mode QSOs are not allowed.

Only terrestrial contacts are valid.

When band or mode changes, serial number sent is progressive.

The use of DX spotting nets is allowed in all categories and
encouraged.

Penalties apply for QSO errors (broken calls, bad exchanges) and
QSOs which do not appear in correspondents log. Two times the QSO
points for such QSOs will be deducted. 10% or more bad contacts
or violation of contest rules shall result in dropping the
participant from the classification.
