HB9RG Trophy 2026 - Distance
Date
Summary
In the first two weeks of March we are holding a competition to celebrate the very first QSO via satellite on March 10, 1965.
The goal is to establish DX QSO via satellite. The 10 farest QSO in total will be counted per participant. (+ Bonus points for the QSO with HB9RG on the bonus day)
Important: In order to create fair conditions, only QSO via LEO, MEO and HEO satellites are allowed. GEO satellites (Es'Hail-2 / QO-100) are therefore excluded from the competition. (Except for the QSO with HB9RG on the bonus day - counts 500 Points).
Please read the details in the rules
For Reminder
- QSO via QO-100 are only valid for the Bonus Points (only QSO with HB9RG counts)
- You will get in maximum 500 Bonuspoints. With other words: You need only one QSO with HB9RG. The main focus of the Trophy must be on the 10 farest QSO.

We are currently preparing the online application form for this year’s competition. Please stay tuned for further information in the coming weeks.
