EPC WW DX Contest

The first EPC WW DX Contest was held at the end of January 2009 and was proven to be very successful with over 600 logs received. Our 2009, 2010, and 2011 points standings are now posted on this web site, these can be found by clicking on the appropriate link to the left of your screen. This project of the European PSK Club has introduced many operators to the BPSK63 mode. Many of the participants were able to qualify for the PSK63 Award. Please continue to use this web site as the only source of verified information for the EPC WX DX Contest as we will continue to use it as a clearing house for information. We would also like to extend an invitation all of our PSK enthusiasts to take part in next year’s contest.

The Contest Committee consists of seven radio amateurs; all of whom are members of the EPC. We have compiled all the necessary documents using contest judging software to process the contest logs. Please watch (and bookmark) this website for the news and updates as the next contest will be here sooner than you think! Along the way we will add more information and files to support your operation in this contest. Please do not hesitate to contact our Contest Secretary (PD1AJE) if you have any questions regarding this exciting, fast-paced contest!
