The YO DX HF Contest is a fantastic opportunity for us to make as many contacts as possible with stations worldwide, with a special emphasis on working Romanian (YO) stations across various bands and modes. We aim to log stations from all over the globe, with YO stations acting as key multipliers to boost our scores. During the contest, we'll be calling CQ and exchanging basic contact information with other operators. The contest runs for 24 hours over a weekend, allowing us to operate on 10m, 15m, 20m, 40m, and 80m using both CW and SSB. It's a great way to test our station's capabilities and enjoy some friendly competition. For first-time participants, we recommend focusing on making consistent contacts and enjoying the process. Always check the official rules for specific categories, exchange format, and scoring details.
