ARRL has announced two rule changes for Field Day 2020 only. The first rule change is that stations operating in class D can contact other class D stations for points. The second change is that an aggregate club score will be published, which will be the sum of all individual entries indicating a specific club.

The 2020 Dayton Hamvention has been canceled, but you still have the opportunity to attend Contest University from the comfort of your QTH! The organizers of Contest University will be holding a free Virtual Contest University via Zoom on May 14th.

Information on setting up your digital station and operating digital modes,
What are the best performing transceivers based on testing by Rob Sherwood, NC0B
And much more!
Fred, AB1OC, and I have been attending Contest University for many years and we learn something new every time. Contest University is highly recommended for our Student/Teacher Contesters as well as all of our members.
