Worked All Germany (WAG) Contest Rules
Deutscher Amateur-Radio-Club (DARC) invites all radio amateurs to take part in the annual Worked All Germany Contest (WAG).
The original rules are published at http://www.darc.de/referate/dx/xgdcgr.htm on the website of the DARC Referat DX und HF-Funksport
Contest Period
October, third full weekend, 1500 UTC on saturday until 1459 UTC on sunday.
- 2009: October 17th and 18th
- 2010: October 16th and 17th
Modes and Bands
- SSB, CW: 3,5 - 7 - 14 - 21 - 28 MHz
According to IARU region 1 regulations and the experience gained from 2006 and 2007 contests, contesting isn't allowed on the following frequencies to not interfer with JOTA participants:
- 80m: CW - 3560 - 3800 kHz, SSB – 3650 – 3700 kHz
- 40m: SSB – 7080 – 7140 kHz
- 20m: CW - 14060 - 14350 kHz, SSB – 14100 – 14125 kHz und 14280 – 14350 kHz
- 15m: SSB – 21350 – 21450 kHz
- 10m: SSB – 28225 – 28400 kHz
Entry Categories
- Single operator, CW, low power
- Single operator, CW, high power
- Single operator, mixed, low power
- Single operator, mixed, high power
- Single operator, mixed, QRP
- Multi operator
- SWL, single operator
Output rating: QRP = up to 5 Watt, low power = up to 100 Watt, high power = more than 100 Watt
Multi Operator: Must remain on a band and mode for at least 10 minutes before changing bands or modes; exclusion: working a multiplicator (other stations may be used besides the main trx for working multiplicators on other bands; that means several signals may be used simultaneously on several bands)
- NEW 2009 The equipment used for contesting must be located within a single 2km diameter circle.
- The use of a DX cluster is allowed for all categories
- Only one transmitted signal is allowed at any given time (except when doing Multi Operator)
Contest Exchange
Foreign participants can only work German stations. German stations can work any station.
Foreign participants send the usual control number containing RS(T) and QSO serial number. German participants send the RS(T) and their DOK (special-DOK with 4 numbers prefix the first character should be avoided).
NEW 2009 German stations not being a member of DARC send "NM" instead of the DOK. "NM" does not count for multipliers.
Stations that didn't send a control number have to be logged with "000".
A station may only be worked once per band and mode.
Multiplicators
German participants may use the valid DXCC-/WAE-list. Each DXCC-/WAE-area counts one multiplicator per band independently of the mode.
Foreign stations receive one point per worked district (first character of the DOK) and band. When working with special-DOKs the first character counts as well.
Counting
German stations receive one point per QSO with another german station, three points with another european station and five points with a DX-station. Forgein stations receive three points for each QSO with a german station. The result is calculated by the overall number of the QSO points multiplied by the multiplicator points.
Contest Certificate
Contest certificates will be available in Portable Document Format (pdf) for printing.
Disqualifications
Fouls or unsportsmanlike behaviour may result in disqualification.
Logs
Logs have to be sent in STF or Cabrillo format to the email address wag (at) dxhf.darc.de
The submission will be acknowledged by an email robot with remarks to the quality of the log. Be sure to use the correct radio call sign in the subject.
NEW 2009 The logs are part of the DCL. By submitting the logs the participant acknowledges the contest rules.
Special rules for SWL stations
SWL stations receive one point (SSB) or three points (CW) for each new german station with a control-number and the radio call sign of the participant station. The multiplicator is the sum of each listened german district (first character of the DOK) on each band independent of the mode. Each German station may be logged once per band and mode.
Closing date for the logs
NEW 2009 The closing date is two weeks resp. the third Monday after the end of the contest.
- 2009: November 2nd
- 2010: November 1st
