Frequent Contester 2019: Rules

The contest club score consists of a large sum of points coming from small stations. We want to activate and motivate each member to participate in the contests and to add the points to the BCC. This year we have an additionally part to motivate all BCC-member to become active in at least one contest.

Frequent Contester:
Goal: 5.000.000 Points during one year (1/1 – 31/12)

The following contests count towards the “frequent contester” – the difficulty of the contests is compensated by a multiplier:

There are 12 contests during one year that can be used by member to collect points towards the “Frequent Contester”. The claimed scores for the BCC will be counted. On Single-Op Activities the full points are counted, on Multi-Op activities the respective parts (claimed score divided by number of operators) are counted.

To increase the activity of our member we have in 2019 additional rules:

  • All BCC-member who are active in 2019 will get a t-shirt “BCC Active Contester”. But this shirt is only available if at least 80 % of all BCC-members became active. A participation in one of the BCC-QSO-Parties 2019 counts too.
  • All BCC-member who are active in 2019 and score at least 5 Mio points will get a t-shirt “BCC Frequent Contester”. But this shirt is only available if at least 40 % of all BCC-members became Frequent Contester.
  • All BCC-member who are active in all contests with at least 100 QSOs/QTCs in 2019 and score at least 5 Mio points will get a t-shirt “BCC Frequent Contester Hero”. But this shirt is only available if at least 40 % of all BCC-members became Frequent Contester.

The actual results will be published here. All “Frequent Contester” that collected a minimum of 5 million points will receive an award.
