Dear Fellow Radio Amateurs,
The Russian Section of the

amateurs all over the world to participate in the
5th EPC Russia
DX Contest 2013. The
objective of the contest is to establish as many

the world and radio amateurs in Russia on
BPSK63
mode. The Contest is annually held at the first
weekend in October in
BPSK63
mode on 160, 80,
40, 20, 15 and 10
meters bands. The
5th EPC Russia DX
Contest will be held
from 04:00 UTC
on 05.10.2013 to 03:59 UTC on 06.10.2013.

operator may change the bands without any
restrictions. The output power should not exceed 10
watts on 160 meters and 100 watts on other bands.
Only one transmitted signal is permitted at any

AFRICAN STATES ---> "As part of the on-going research and documentation of
callsign history since 1945 for Club Log, and to aid the fine-tuning of
Club Log's DXCC entity mapping, I have spent some considerable time
researching and documenting the history of prefix changes in Africa", Alan
5B4AHJ says. Go to http://clublog.freshdesk.com/support/solutions and search
for 'African states - independence dates and prefix changes'. "This is quite
a substantial document, pulling together information from a wide variety of
sources. Although I have checked the document as carefully as I can, it is
possible that it contains some errors. Please advise if you find any".

for DXCC credit. If you've had this rejected in a prior application, send a

record. Please note the submission date and/or reference number where the
rejection was noted to expedite the search for any rejected QSOs. [TNX NC1L]
