Oceania DX contest 2017 - VK4ADC - 06-10-2017
ZL STYLE....
In New Zealand, hams are getting ready for two weekends of Pacific Islands DXing, as Jim Meachen ZL2BHF told our good friends at Amateur Radio Newsline.
Hams in New Zealand consider the Oceania DX Contest one of the easiest and most friendly competitions around. Its also one of the longest-running ham radio contests. In fact, this event seems to deliver everything but the on-air contact itself.
The competition heats up during the first two weekends in October, over two 24-hour periods, and all thats needed is 50 QSOs to qualify for a certificate.
The weekend of October 7th and 8th will be reserved for phone; CW operators will get chance October 14th and 15th.
Its a tradition of Pacific Island contesting that dates back to the 1930s and organizers are encouraging New Zealand hams in particular to make this their first contest if they have yet to jump into the fray.
There are new island activations in the contest this year - both VK9XI and VK9CI will be on Christmas Island and Cocos Keeling Island respectively. There will also be a memorial plaque awarded for the first time this year in honour of Australian amateur Ken Jewell VK3AKK who became a Silent Key in May.
According to the website, organizers in New Zealand and Australia have counted just fewer than 1,200 logs from last years event - an increase of 70 percent over the previous year - so hope is high for this years participation.
