NG3K's Contest DXpedition Page

The CQ WW is about fun, learning and competition. Contesters love to go on DXpeditions to the far reaches of the planet. These DXpeditions make the contest more interesting and challenging for all of us.

Check out the planned DXpeditions for the upcoming CW contest on NG3K's web site at Amateur Radio Contesting Resources and Information.


Hardware Lockout Devices

The CQ WW DX Contest rules prohibit more than one signal on the air at a time for Single Operator stations and one signal on a band for Multi-Operator stations. The best way to insure meeting these rules is by employing a physical interlock between the transmitters. See the links below for some ideas on how to do this.

1. Device by AD5X

2. Device by LZ2GL for LZ9W

3. Device for K3s by N6TV

4. Lockout device by W9ZRX for K3LR

5. Lockout device by 4O3A
