<div> </div>
<div>
<div>In the meantime the USKA (Union of Swiss Shortwave Amateurs) has changed the contest rules for the Helvetia contest.</div>
<div>The contest exchange for each contact consists of the signal report (RS or RST) and the abbreviation of the canton for their location (e.g. 59 ZH, 599 ZH).</div>
<div>The exchange of the serial QSO numbers is no more necessary.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Will Wintest support this new contest rules for the current Helvetia contest 2017 starting on the 29./30. April 2017??</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks a lot and 73</div>
