The phone portion of the Classic Exchange will take place Sunday Jan 23 
1400Z to Monday Jan 24 0800Z and Tuesday Jan 25 1400Z to Wednesday Jan 
26 0800Z (For those wondering, yes the phone portion comes before the CW 
portion this trip.)

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.

Bonus points: Ameco, Gonset, Lettine, Harvey Wells, Geloso, Utah, and 
Lysco radios! 500 points for each transmitter or receiver, 1000 points 
for each transceiver. Bonus points are for radios that you qualify with 
at least 3 QSOs.
