           CQIR - Ireland Calling Contest Rules
 
In 2007 the Irish Radio Transmitters Society (IRTS) celebrates the 75th anniversary
 of its founding in 1932.  As part of the jubilee celebrations the Society is organising
 an International Radio Contest, "CQIR - Ireland Calling".
CQIR is a once-off event, with a difference - overseas entrants with 75 or more QSOs have
 the opportunity to win a trip to Ireland.
In these rules, references to Ireland mean the island of Ireland and its offshore islands.
1 Object: 
1.1 CQIR celebrates the IRTS Jubilee and the "Irish" amateur-radio community worldwide. 
    It's where the Irish, at home and abroad, work the World - and where those of Irish
    descent identify themselves by including their ancestral county in the exchange,
    for example: County Cork, County Antrim etc.
1.2 This is an "everyone works everyone" event on the five contest bands from 10 to 80 metres. 
2 Date and Contest Period: 
2.1 From 12:00 UTC Saturday 29th September 2007 to 12:00 UTC Sunday 30th September 2007. 
    Note: The contest finishes (is over) at 12:00:00 on the Sunday.
3 Entry Categories: 
3.1 Irish
    Single-Op All-Band CW
    Single-Op All-Band SSB
    Single-Op All-Band Mixed (CW/SSB)
3.2 World
    Single-Op All-Band CW
    Single-Op All-Band SSB
    Single-Op All-Band Mixed (CW/SSB)
3.3 Entrants are "Irish" if:
    - they operate from Ireland, or
    - they were born in Ireland, or have a direct ancestral link to Ireland - with no time
      limit.  Anyone whose partner/spouse qualifies under this section can be Irish too.
3.4 All other entrants are "World" entrants. 
4 Contest Exchange: 
4.1 Irish entrants (EI/GI) send a serial and their county code (the county in which the 
    station is located).County codes are listed in Section 11.
4.2 Irish entrants outside Ireland, known as "Overseas Irish", do not send a serial,
    but identify themselves by sending a 4-digit year and a county code.
4.2.1 The year indicates the most recent year they, their partner/spouse or their direct 
      ancestor as relevant,left Ireland to live overseas - for example 1849, 1978,2002. 
      This year should be the same for all QSOs.
4.2.2 The county code indicates the most recent Irish county resided in by themselves, 
      their partner/spouse, or their direct ancestor.  The county code should be the
      same for all QSOs.
4.3 Other, non-Irish, entrants send a serial, but no county code. 
4.4 Serials must be a minimum of 3 digits, with leading zeros as appropriate,
    starting at 001, and increasing sequentially for each QSO logged.
5 Scoring: 
5.1 CW QSOs  - 3 points.
    SSB QSOs - 2 points.
5.1.1 Points are doubled for QSOs with "Irish stations", those giving a county code in 
      accordance with these Rules.
5.2 The same station may be worked once per band/mode combination. 
5.3 Multipliers are each different Irish county code, on each band and and on each mode.
    The maximum is 32 per band for single-mode entrants, and 64 per band for mixed-mode
    entries.
5.4 Invalid QSOs, not in conformance with these Rules, score zero points, do not qualify
    as multipliers, and do not count towards Prize Draw entry.
5.5 QSOs logged with incorrect Serial/Year or County score zero points, do not qualify as
    multipliers, and do not count towards Prize Draw entry.
5.6 Penalties: 
5.6.1 Each QSO logged with a "busted" or "not-in-log" callsign may, at the discretion of 
      IRTS, incur a penalty of up to three times the expected QSO score, may not qualify
      as a multiplier, and may cause a deduction of up to three QSOs in the count towards
      Prize Draw entry.
5.6.2 There is no penalty for dupes - they should not be removed from your log. 
6 Awards: 
6.1 For each and every 75 valid QSOs logged, entrants will qualify for one entry to the
    CQIR prize draw.  Two prizes will be awarded, one for entrants operating from outside
    Ireland, and the other for entrants operating in Ireland.
 
  i) For entrants operating from outside Ireland:Air travel to Ireland for the entrant and
     one other person - with accommodation for one week in Kinnitty Castle, Co. Offaly.
                                                            http://www.kinnittycastle.com.
 
  ii) For entrants operating from Ireland:  A weekend in New York City for the entrant
      and one other person.
6.2 Prizes are not transferable, and can not be exchanged for cash or other goods. 
    Prize winners must consent to  being interviewed and photographed.
6.3 Prize winners must bear full personal liability for any  delay, injury or incident
    incurred while away from home. As such, acceptable evidence of comprehensive travel
    insurance must be provided to IRTS before travel begins. Likewise, prize winners must
    make their own arrangements for acquiring any necessary passports and/or tourist visas.
    Do I need a Visa to come to Ireland?.
6.4 Time Limit: IRTS will use its best endeavours to  facilitate prize-winners' preferences
    with regards to timing.  Nevertheless, a prize-winner who, for any reason, does not
    avail of the prize within 11 months of the contest will forfeit the prize.
6.5 Each entrant with 75 or more valid QSOs logged will receive a participation certificate. 
7 Conditions of Entry: 
7.1 This is a single-operator event for human operators. 
7.2 The operator must not avail of operating, logging or external assistance during the 
    contest period.
    External assistance is "information from any source,other than that already known or
    possessed by the the operator at the starting time of the contest, sought or acted upon
    with the intent or potential to increase the operator's score". 
  Exception: Information obtained by the operator in the normal course of listening and
    logging on the band(s) and mode(s) corresponding to the entry class is not
    deemed to be external assistance.
7.3 The operator must not volunteer or supply information that might represent external 
    assistance to other entrants.In particular,any use of any spotting network is prohibited.
7.4 Cross-band and/or cross-mode QSOs are not permitted. QSOs must take place in the
    recommended IARU band segments for contest operation.
7.5 The operator must not transmit on any other band or mode within 10 minutes of the first
    QSO logged on a specific band/mode combination. For example, if the first such QSO
    is logged at 21:02, no QSO is permitted on any other band or mode before 21:13. 
    QSOs in breach of this rule will score zero points, will not qualify as multipliers,
    and will not count toward Prize Draw entry.
7.6 The operator must not use more power than generally permitted by his/her licence class,
    regardless of any individual variation(s) or exemption(s) that may have been granted.
7.7 Only one transmitted signal is permitted at any time. 
7.8 The operator and the station (all equipment and antennas) must be located within
    a circle of 500 metres diameter.
7.9 The microphone or key(er), transmitter, amplifier (if any) and antennas must be 
    connected by wire at all times.
7.10 QSOs must be logged in real-time. The operator must not use recording equipment to 
     assist with logging or to verify logged QSOs.  In this context, "equipment" includes
     hardware and/or software, even if such equipment is an integral component of the station.
7.11 QSOs must not be solicited during the contest other than by calling other entrants 
     directly on-air, by calling CQ on-air, or by the on-air arrangement of skeds with other
     entrants.  Bands or modes or technologies which are not permitted in this event or which
     do not correspond to the entry class are not considered to be "on-air".
7.12 All entries become the property of IRTS.
    
7.13 Entrants agree to be bound by the provisions and intent  of these rules.  In any dispute,
     the decision(s) of IRTS  alone shall be final.

    call used during the contest.
8.2 All QSO records in your logs must conform to the Cabrillo specifications in Section 10 
    of these Rules - based on the specifications for the RSGB IOTA Contest at
                                       http://www.kkn.net/~trey/cabrillo/qso-template.html.
    If your logging software does not support this format, you must prepare your log with
    software that does, or must reformat your log accordingly.
    Logs that do not conform will not be accepted and will not qualify for any award.
8.3 Paper logs will not be accepted and will not qualify for any award.
