The First Russian WW PSK Contest took place in 2003. MSSTVs Club was the initiator of that contest. The contest passed in PSK31 mode and only 64 participants sent the reports. The first contest was not prepared technically. There was neither Contest Committee nor proper working software. All that appeared only two years later in 2005. Viktor Kosobokov R3BB managed to write DLL under MixW, afterwards contest committee program was developed. The First winners were: 1st place – RX9SN, 2nd place – UA4FCO, 3rd place – UU4J. Later on the contest became popular and it entered all contest calandaries. In 2011 the Russian section of EPC has carried on MSSTVs Club’s work to organize this contest. In 2015 the Russian Digital Radio Club work to organize RUS-WW-PSK. We invite all amateurs of digital modes and our club-mates in particular to struggle for prizes, awards and contest certificates, and just simply work in your pleasure.

Categories (subgroup):
SOAB – SINGLE-OP ALL – Single-Operator, All Bands; MOAB – MULTI-ONE – Multi-Operator, Single Transmitter, All Bands – Club stations and SES stations; SOSB – SINGLE-OP 160M; SINGLE-OP 80M; SINGLE-OP 40M; SINGLE-OP 20M; SINGLE-OP 15M; SINGLE-OP 10M – Single Operator, SingleBand;
SOSWL – SINGLE-OP SWL – Single-Operator SWL, All Bands.
Note: The participants can be declared only one subgroup.
Note MOAB: One – five operators with their personal or SWL callsigns can form a team. Personal callsigns should be necessarily specified. Each participant younger than 20 years in subgroup MOAB will be awarded a certificate for participation in the contest.
Note SWL: Bilaterial supervision when both are accepted signal and both control numbers are set off only. With the same signal it is possible to fix in the report only one supervision in each mode on one band. In the report each bilaterial supervision should be written down in one line. For one supervision it is charged three points. Multipliers at observers are not present. A divergence on time standard – no more than 3 minutes. That the report has been accepted to refereeing, it is necessary for making strictly on the recommended sample. Certificates will award the winner, prize-winners and participants in subgroup SWL on the basis of the general rules of rewarding.
Note to air monitoring: Observers and participants of the contest can assist the Contest Committee in terms of monitoring and recording of air possible violations.
