This week I had to change the link to the rules to address issues with the
contest calendar web sites.

The new link for upcoming CX events is

Sorry about the confusion and thanks to those that pointed this issue out
to me.

The phone portion of the Classic Exchange will take place Sunday Nov 14 1400Z to Nov 15 0800Z and Tuesday Nov 14 1400Z to Nov 15 0800Z.

The CX is a no-pressure contest celebrating the older commercial and Home Brew equipment that was the pride and joy of ham shacks many decades ago. The object is to encourage restoration, operation and enjoyment of this older Classic equipment.

You need not operate a Classic rig to participate in the CX. You may use any rig in the contest although new gear is a distinct scoring disadvantage as your multipliers are directly related to the age of the equipment you use! However, you can still work the "great ones" with modern equipment.

Bonus points: Transceivers it is! 1000 points for each transceiver! Radios that are a “Transmitter / Receiver”, such as the Heathkit HW-16, qualify as a transceiver. Bonus points are for radios that you qualify with at least 3 QSOs.
