Murray, is the baud rate/bandwidth info correct? 11 baud is narrower
than 8 baud ?

Contest Name : " DominoEX HF Contest"
Date: July 15, 206
Time: 0000 UTC to 1800 UTC
Bands: 160,80,40,20,15, 10.
Mode : DominoEX only (11 baud standard, 8 baud also permitted ). FEC
is not encouraged.
FYI:
DominoEX 8 bandwidth equals 346Hz , 50 WPM
DominoEX 11 bandwidth equals 262Hz , 70 WPM
For information on this mode, consult http://www.qsl.net/zl1bpu/DOMINO/Index.htm
This mode can be found in two software applications,:
http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~coombedn/FILES/DominoEXj.zip
or
http://f6cte.free.fr/index_anglais.htm
Classification 1. Single Operator MultiBand
2. Single Operator Single Band
Use of DX Clusters IS allowed.
Purpose : This contest is intended to test the viability of DominoEx
as a digital contest mode since it compares favourably to RTTY and
PSK63 and my better these modes under certain conditions.
Exchange: RS(T) report plus a progressive contact three-digit serial
number starting with 001 for the first contact. Your log MUST show the
correct serial number sent and received for each contact.
Scoring: This contest will use the same scoring method and rules as
the CQ RTTY WPX 2006 contest .
"QSO Points:1. Contacts between stations on different continents are
worth three(3) points on 28, 21, and 14 MHz and six (6) points on 7
and 3.5 MHz.2. Contacts between stations on the same continent but in
different countries, and contacts with maritime mobile stations, are
worth two (2)points on 28, 21, and 14 MHz and four (4) points on 7 and
3.5 MHz.3. Contacts between stations in the same country are worth one
(1)point on 28, 21, and 14 MHz, and two (2) points on 7 and 3.5
MHz.IX. Multiplier: The multiplier is the number of "valid" prefixes
worked. A prefix is counted only once regardless of the number of
times the same prefix is worked.1. A prefix is the letter/numeral
combination which forms the first part of the amateur call. Examples:
N8, W8, AB8, DL5, DJ2, HG1, WD200,WF96, 3DAØ, GB75, ZS66, U3, etc. Any
difference in the numbering,lettering, or order of same shall
constitute a separate prefix. A station operating from a DXCC country
different from that indicated by its call-sign is required to sign
portable. The portable prefix must be an authorized prefix of the
country/call area of operation. In cases of portable operation the
portable designator will then become the prefix. Example:AB5KD
operating from Wake Island would sign AB5KD/KH9 orAB5KD/NH9. American
DX (KL7, KH6, KP2, KH3, etc.) operating with-in the 48 states must
sign with a full designator of their choice. KH6XXX operating from
Ohio must use an authorized prefix for the U.S. 8th dis-district (W8,
K8, etc.). United States portable stations are not permitted to select
a portable prefix designation. For example, WS7I/2 is permitted,but
WS7I/WY2 or WS7I/KZ2 is not. Portable designators without numbers
will be assigned a zero (Ø) after the second letter of the portable
designator to form a prefix. Example: N8BJQ/PA would become PAØ.All
calls without numbers will be assigned a zero (Ø) after the first two
letters to form the prefix. Example: XEFTJW would count as
XEØ.Maritime mobile, mobile, /A, /E, /J, /P, or interim license class
identifiers do not count as prefixes.2. Special event, commemorative,
and other unique prefix stations are encouraged to participate.
Prefixes must be assigned by the licensing authority of the country of
operation"
Scoring:1. Multiband score = total QSO points from all bands
multiplied by the number of different prefixes worked (prefixes are
counted only once).
Single Band score = total QSO points on the band multiplied by the
number of different prefixes worked.--
No multi--operator class
