The following Contest dates have been confirmed. I will add subsequent Contest and Activity Weekend dates as they become available.

• August 8th - 9th - 146 and 437MHz contest. Starts Saturday at 1 pm, runs through to Sunday 7 pm.
• Sept 19th - 20th - 50 and 70MHz contest. Starts Saturday at 1 pm, runs through to Sunday 7 pm.

Just for clarification, these Contests will run from 1200 UTC (1 pm UK Local) on the Saturday until 1800 UTC (7 pm UK local) on the Sunday. The rules will be exactly the same as for the IARU International Contest, except the only bands eligible will be those specified. Multiplier for 50, 71, 146 and 437 MHz band is 2 points per km for a two way contact, and half that for a one-way contact.

The basic rules are here: https://www.iaru-r1.org/wp-content/uplo ... -rules.pdf, but please note that entries should be sent to "contests@batc.tv".

The logsheet for entries is here: https://wiki.batc.org.uk/images/d/d5/AT ... 190608.xls
