There will be some rule changes to the upcoming 2025 CQ World Wide (CQWW) DX SSB and CW contests this fall. Most of these modifications will be minor with one notable exception: the Explorer category will be discontinued effective with the 2025 CQWW DX Contest. A new Multi-Transmitter-Distributed category will be added, and the rules will be consistent with the CQ WPX Multi-Distributed category. See section C.4. of the CQWW rules at cqww.com/rules.htm for details.

The raw scores for the CW World Wide RTTY Contest are now available at cqwwrtty.com/raw.htm. Raw scores do not include score reductions that may occur in the log-checking process and may vary from the claimed score computed by your logging software. There’s still time to get your logs in before the final run of the log- checking software, which is still a few weeks away. ADIF formatted logs can be converted to the required Cabrillo format for submittal at cqww.com/adif.

If you have any photos or stories from this year’s contest that you’d like to have included in the results article, please send them to Jeff Stai, WK6I, at wk6i.jeff@gmail.com.
