The Winter 2024 CW Classic Exchange is set for Sunday Jan 21, 1300Z to Jan 22, 0700Z and Tuesday Jan 23, 1300Z to Jan 24, 0700Z. 

The CX is a no-pressure contest celebrating the older commercial and Home Brew equipment that was the pride and joy of ham shacks many decades ago. The object is to encourage restoration, operation and enjoyment of this older Classic equipment. You need not operate a Classic rig to participate in the CX. You may use any rig in the contest although new gear is a distinct scoring disadvantage as your multipliers are directly related to the age of the equipment you use! However, you can still work the "great ones" with modern equipment.

There are two (2) entry categories per mode: ►Three or fewer receiver-transmitter pairs ►Four or more receiver-transmitter pairs.

There will be CX recognition for high scores in Phone and CW as well as overall.
