Oceania DX Contest 2011

Mirek VK6DXI: Chciałbym serdecznie zaprosić wszystkich do udziału w Oceania DX Contest 2011. Załączam "oficjalny list" od komitetu zawodów poniżej. Polskie stacje są rokrocznie licznie reprezentowane i mam nadzieję, że ten rok będzie jak poprzednie.

Osobiście nie będę mógł wziąć udziału w części SSB i są tylko małe szanse, że będę w części CW. Żałuję bardzo, że tak niestety się w tym roku ułożyło. Niemniej na pewno będą inne stacje polonijne z Antypodów.
Udanej zabawy i powodzenia w zawodachl,

Hi everyone,

The 2011 Oceania DX contest is now only 2 weeks away, with the Phone SSB section on the first weekend in October and the CW section on the second weekend. This is a great opportunity to work a lot of DX stations in the Oceania area, as well as giving your station a test drive for the new DX contest season and the big CQ WW contest events later in the year.

The aim of the contest is to promote HF contacts with stations in the Oceania region. Oceania stations can work other Oceania and non-Oceania stations. Non-Oceania stations can only work Oceania stations.

We are expecting a good turn out from VK, ZL and YB stations, as well as stations from some of the rarer South Pacific entities. In particular, the Oceania Amateur Radio DX Group which sponsors two of the contest plaques, is undertaking a major DXpedition to Vanuatu and will be active with the callsign YJ0VK in both the Phone and CW sections - see http://yj0vk.odxg.org/ for more information.

The 2011 contest is also recognised as a qualifying event for Oceania contesters that are interested in seeking selection for the next World Radiosport Team Championship (WRTC) in 2014. See http://wrtc2014.org/team-selection/ for more information about the WRTC and team selection.
