Rules for the Roskilde 1658 Award

Time: until December 31, 2009.

Availability: The award is available for both licensed radio amateurs and SWLs.

Frequencies and modes:

All frequencies that are allowed for amateur radio in Sweden and Denmark can be used by the participating callsigns. All modes are valid for the award. However, no QSOs over repeaters, crossband repeaters, transponders or satellites will count for the award.

QSOs or loggings needed:

At least four of the Swedish callsigns listed under "Callsigns" in the menu shall be contacted by radio amateurs or logged by SWLs.

If the Danish wild card station, OZ1658ROS, is contacted or logged only three of the Swedish callsigns listed under "Callsigns" in the menu are needed along with OZ1658ROS.

For the day of the treaty, February 26, 2008 and 2009, special rules apply:

On this day only two Swedish callsigns listed under "Callsigns" in the menu or one Swedish callsign and the Danish wild card station, OZ1658ROS, need to be contacted or logged. UTC time applies.

Please note that one QSO or logging on February 26, 2008 and one QSO with or logging of another callsign on February 26, 2009 is enough to earn the award.
