The RSGB Contest Committee has issued a statement concerning the use of digital modes (MGM) in the UK Activity Contest (UKAC)

Following an exceptional request for a change to UK Activity Contest (UKAC) by the RSGB Board, made in order to enable increased participation by remotely located stations, and after consultation between the RSGB Board and the RSGB Contest Committee (RSGBCC), the RSGBCC has agreed to the following amendment to the rules of the UKACs effective from the 1st February 2015:

“The use of machine generated transmission modes (MGM) are permitted in the AX section of all UKACs and in all sections of the 23cm UKAC and the SHF UKAC.”
