Here's how we announced the 'test back then:

Join the fun!

When: February 25 - 0100 through 0259 UTC (2 hours)                    (Sunday evening, February 24th, North America local time) Bands: CW Only - 3.560 7.040 14.060 MHz Don't forget! There's an extra 1,000 "bonus" points for working either NØCQC or WØCQC      (1,000 points max, even if you work both...)

Exchange:

RST,  state/province/DXCC country, first name, and CQC member # or power output.
           Example: 579 CO Jim NR 04

Classes:

CW only - no subclasses.

QSO Points:

     CW- CQC member 6 pts, non-member 4 pts

Score:

Total Score = QSO Points x Multipliers x Names
*Bonus points for working Club Station WØCQC - Add 1000
            points to your FINAL score for working WØCQC

Multiplier:

States/Provinces/Countries worked.
The same station may be worked on different bands for additional QSO points and
multipliers. Contacts on the same band using a different mode counts for QSO
points, but not as an additional multiplier

Power:

Stations involved in the comptetition must use 5 Watts or less output, CW. However,
it's okay to work other stations that are running more than 5 Watts. The idea is that
if you submit your log, competitevly, you need to run 5 Watts or less output power.
