Date/Time: CW: 1400 UTC, April 6, 2005, to 0200 UTC, April 8, 2005 SSB: 1400 UTC, April 13, 2005, to 0200 UTC, April 15, 2005 Eligibility: All licensed women operators throughout the world are invited to participate. Procedure: DX YLs call "CQ North American YL". North American YLs call "CQ DX YL". Operation: All bands may be used. Contacts with OMs do not count. Participants may work only 24 hours of the 36 hours in each contest. Operating breaks must be shown in the log. Exchange: Station worked, QSO number, RS(T), ARRL section/VE province/country. Entries in log must also show time, band, date, and transmitter power. Scoring: • (1) Phone and CW will be scored as separate contests. Submit separate logs for each contest. • (2) DX YLs, including Hawaii and Alaska, may contact all the North American continent, which includes the 48 contiguous states and the Canadian provinces. • (3) Contestants on the North American continent (including the 48 contiguous states and Canadian provinces) may contact DX YL stations, including Hawaii and Alaska. • (4) A station may be counted once on each band for credit and one point is earned for each station worked once on each band. • (5) Multiply the number of QSOs by the number of different ARRL sections/VE provinces/countries worked. A multiplier is counted only once in the contest. • (6) Contestants running 150 watts or less on CW and 300 watts PEP or less on SSB, at all times, may multiply the results of 5) above by 1.5 (the low power multiplier). Logs: All logs must show your ARRL section/VE province/country to qualify for awards. For each QSO, logs must show the station worked, QSO number given and received, RS(T) given and received, ARRL section/VE province/country of station worked, time, band, and date. Logs must also state the power output used. If you have 200 or more QSOs, submit a separate log for each band and submit a "dupe" sheet. Photocopies are OK, but not carbon copies will be accepted. File separate logs for each contest. -------------------- ooo -------------------- Date of info: 5 April, 2005 - Source: YLRL Web Site - http://www.qsl.net/ylrl/ylcontests.html - (Original rules updated: 5 January, 2005) -------------------- ooo -------------------- This contest is known to be supported by: All In One by WD8KNC: http://www.geocities.com/ghafler.geo/wd8knc.html Lux-Log by LX1NO: http://www.luxlog.info/ SM3CER Contest Service Software Page: http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/software.htm -------------------- ooo -------------------- MORE INFO: General Rules for YLRL Contests: http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/text/ylrlgen.htm YLRL Web Site: http://www.qsl.net/ylrl/ -------------------- ooo -------------------- Please send corrections/changes/new rules/results to: Jan-Eric Rehn - SM3CER sm3cer(at)contesting.com -------------------------------------------------- URL: http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/text/ylrldxna.txt Copyright © 1998-2005 Jan-Eric Rehn - SM3CER This page was created January 24, 1998 Most recent revision April 5, 2005 --------------------------------------------------
