SAC contest

Please welcome to SAC CW next week and SSB some weeks later: CW 21-22 September and SSB 12-13 October.
Our beloved SAC is 60 years old, and for this anniversary we offer special dipolomas:

Bronze - to those whose first SAC was 1980-1989
Silver - to those whose first SAC was 1970-1979
Gold - to those whose first SAC was 1960-1969
Platina -  to those who were in first SAC 1959

To get this you only need to report your first SAC-year when uploading your log.

Each part of this "Polar Battle" gathers 1000+ contesters from all around the world. As the Nordic hams enter their radio huts en masse, SAC offers non-scandinavians a unique opportunity to work the propagationally challenged Arctic nations and practice your skills.
