Get on the air for the 2025 DX Marathon!

The CQ DX Marathon has been encouraging Amateur Radio operators to get on the air every year since 1948. Everyone’s regular DX contacts count towards this event.

Take advantage of this event to give yourself a reason to operate every day during 2025!

⭐ The Rules for the 2025 CQ Magazine DX Marathon were revised on December 4th, 2024.

Summary of Changes 2024 vs 2025

There are a few major changes in the 2025 rules vs those of 2024. These are summarized below:

  • Two class changes that have been added. The Formula Class has been split into two sections. Those that have entered in the past with a 100W maximum power output, and a new class for those who wish to operate under the same Formula rules but can operate at the maximum permissible output allowed by their license class.

  • The QRP section similarly exists as last year, however an added class option has been added, QRP Unlimited which will allow for any antenna configuration with no restrictions.

  • In the awards part of the rules, a country plaque providing sponsors are found has been added. Heretofore, the highest country score would receive a certificate. As sponsors step forward during 2025 with a $100 sponsorship fee, countries will be added. As of the writing of the rules today, we have secured sponsors for 4 countries, Venezuela, Turkey, Slovak Republic, and Chile. We will continue to add countries as sponsors step forward throughout the 2025 period.

  • In the youth program, we have included another plaque award. There will be now a plaque award for the top youth 15 years and younger along with a separate award for the top scoring youth 16-25.

  • We have emphasized the seriousness of the requirement to have a single operating station for entry into the program, i.e. remote stations are allowed but second remote stations or remote receiving antennas separate from the home station are disallowed. The operating staff of the DX Marathon consider violations to this rule as significant and will assess penalties if this rule is broken.

  • All restrictions in participation of stations in Russia and Belarus are removed and they will be eligible for plaques/certificates. Other stations may work these countries and receive full credit. Donbas, however, beginning with D1 are not legitimate calls and will not be recognized.

  • Special Note: The United Kingdom has relaxed its location rules for some call signs. G0ABC, G1XYZ, M3QRS, etc. can now be in any GD, GI, GJ, or GW location as well as G. There is no way to know when this is the case and we believe that few stations employ these rules changes with the UK. Meanwhile, GD5ABC still must be in GD, MW3QRS in GW, etc. For overall fairness, all G0ABC type calls will be scored as G, England, regardless of where they are located. 1

ℹ️ Read the complete rules for 2025

About the Annual CQ DX Marathon

Starting January 1 of each year and running until the end of December, the DX Marathon is the perfect answer for the DX-er who needs that extra incentive to get on the air every day!

Simply work as many countries and CQ Zones as you can in each calendar year, regardless of the band or mode. Each country and zone counts only once, so you can concentrate on working new ones, rather than working the same ones on multiple bands and modes. Find more information in the rules. 2

Zombie Shuffle 2024

The QRP zombies were out and about on the bands last night (October 25th). I got on the air for some of the annual Zombie Shuffle. This year was a little different experience for me from past years, but it was still fun.

This contest is called a shuffle because zombies don’t sprint. It kicks off at 1500 local time, but I usually don’t work too many fellow zombies in the first hour. The 40M band is usually my bread and butter band, however, I made most of my contacts in the first hour on 20M. I kicked things off by working a bonus station and worked about eight total in the first hour before taking an extended break.

I checked the bands again twice after dark, and it was slim pickings for me. There was a constant S3-S4 local noise level on 40M, which made things tough. I managed five more zombies on 40M, but it was rough going at times. From my RBN spots, I was obviously getting out better than I was receiving.

I usually pick up a few zombies on 80M, but not this year. Anyway, I wrapped things up early and submitted my entry to Paul NA5N in time to watch Game 1 of the World Series.

This year I was again running 5 watts from my KX3 into my rain gutter antenna. During exchanges, I used my zombie name, Bones.

My 13 contacts were a few off from last year’s shuffle, but it certainly wasn’t my worst year either. It’s a silly contest, but I look forward to it every year.

Save the Date for the Fox Mike Hotel Portable Operations Challenge

There’s a new contest debuting October 3–4, 2020 for portable Amateur Radio Operators, and those living under onerous HOA restrictions or the realities of limited real estate: the Portable Operations Challenge (POC). Potential participants are encouraged to add this event to their calendars and review the Operator Resources.

This contest—developed by Frank Howell, K4FMH—is “aimed at leveling the competitive playing field between fixed stations and portable stations”1 through the use of a scoring system which gives portable stations a handicap advantage. In the words of the contest founder:

The POC aims to make portable operations “on par” with more typical QTH-based operations while preserving the enjoyment of being in a new operating environment. Moreover, QTH-based operators can also easily participate in the action, challenging the handicapped-scoring for portable ops. Can the Super Station contester best the Little Pistol portable operation? If we use a scoring metric that reduces the advantages of QTH-bound stations to that of pure radio sport operating, is there a chance that an efficient portable operator or team can come out ahead of the current winning contest station operators? That’s why this is called the Portable Operations Challenge!2

The Grand Prize Donor for the POC is MFJ Enterprises.

The POC is endorsed by four Amateur Radio Entities:

Despite the ARRL NCJ endorsement, this contest is neither an ARRL nor an NCJ official event.

The POC—mentioned by RRRA member on the Club Announcements and Club Discussions mailing lists—was featured in the ARRL News story: New Contest for Portable Stations to Debut in October on August 18, 2020.

Operation Time Limit

POC Operators must adhere to the contest operation time limit posted on the contest page:

Contest operation time—8-hour contiguous window within the 48-hours—chosen by the contestant to suit the appropriate region in the world where the entrant resides. The organisers wish the contestants to consider all dangers in the time window that they chose (e.g. putting up or taking down a portable station in the dark is not recommended). Operation outside of this 8-hour window contacting other POC competing stations is not allowed and will be controlled through log checking—this is to avoid entrants “cherry picking” of the best 8 hours from their log should the contestant operate a longer period than 8 hours in the POC. Contestants must also work within any local regulations, such as those to control the COVID-19 pandemic.3

This limit is also discussed on page 1 of the POC rules document.

ARRL Contest and DXCC Rules Now Prohibit Fully Automated Contacts

Following the direction of the ARRL Board of Directors, ARRL has incorporated changes to the rules for all ARRL-sponsored contests and DXCC, prohibiting automated contacts. These changes also apply to the Worked All States (including Triple Play and 5-Band WAS), VHF/UHF Century Club, and Fred Fish, W5FF, Memorial awards. The changes are effective immediately.1

A resolution at the July ARRL Board of Directors meeting pointed to “growing concern over fully automated contacts being made and claimed” for contest and DXCC credit. The rules now require that each claimed contact include contemporaneous direct initiation by the operator on both sides of the contact. Initiation of a contact may be either local or remote.1

A discussion of these rule changes by one of the authors of the motions; N2RJ, an ARRL Director; was posted on Facebook and has been discussed in forums such as the Minnesota Wireless Association mailing list :

What is allowed:

Operator initiated contacts on any digital mode. Operator initiated means that a human operator initiates a CQ call or answers a contact. Once the contact is completed, operator must initiate another if they so choose.

Auto sequence is allowed - you initiate the contact, auto sequence sees it through, ends the contact. It is not allowed for any sort of automation to automatically start another contact.

What is NOT allowed:

Operator sets up fully automated QSOs that automatically answer and CQ again without human intervention. This is possible with external software to control WSJT-X, modified versions of WSJT-X and third party programs that use the WSJT decoding algorithms but offer fully automatic operation.

WHY we made this change:

Several members have contacted us saying that some stations are on the air 24x7 for months at a time. Joe Taylor himself expressed concern about this to me personally. So it was decided that we would address this.

What this affects:

All ARRL contests, ARRL awards starting with DXCC but other awards will have the rules adjusted.

What this does NOT affect:

Regular operation not claimed for DX or contest credit, such as WSPR beacons, Pactor/WinLink, Packet radio or AREDN.

Enforcement:

This is on the honor system primarily, but there are ways to determine unusual operation with modern technology. These fully automated contacts simply aren’t allowed and repeated violation could result in harsher penalties including being barred from ARRL awards and contests".2
