Triathlon DX Contest announcement
It all started in August of 2011. That was about when it occurred to Mike,
SV5BYR that a big Greek Contest was missing from international Ham Radio Contest
Calendar. By the end of September this idea became mature and so the "Triathlon"
was born! A triathlon is a multi-sport event involving the completion of three
continuous and sequential endurance events. And as you have already guessed, it
is a Greek word. We had to change a bit the name to Triathlon DX Contest to
match our activity.
Actually, trying here to simulate the original Triathlon athletic event, we
involved three major ham radio modes, SSB, CW and RTTY. It will be a 24 hour
non-stop event divided in three sections, each one devoted to a different mode.
There are some tentative rules of the contest that you can take a look. It will
take place on Saturday, the 1st full weekend of February, debuting on
02-02-2013.
After all, what makes this particular contest unique is the special gift for the
winner! (take a look to the prize page)
In this point we have to mention all the Greek amateurs who are working to make
this event alive: SV1DPI, SV1NK, SV2AGW, SV2DCD, SV5BYR, SV7JAR, SV8CS, SV8RX,
SV9GPV, SV9DJO. There is still a lot of work to be done and more details to be
announced. Stay tuned!
