NEW A reminder that entrants must adhere to the 144MHz band plan during contests. A number of stations have
been penalised for operating on SSB in the CW only section (below 144.150MHz).

Also, a reminder of the new UKAC rules for 2022. Stations may enter on behalf of a different club for each UKAC
band (6m, 4m, 2m, 70cms, 23cms and SHF), but may not change their affiliation on a band after the June UKAC
unless they have moved QTH and are entering on behalf of a Local Group.
