Xmas DX Contest
New Award and Operation Alert                   Â
The Israel Amateur Radio Club (I.A.R.C) is proud to announce a new national award program entitled: Â Â Holyland Christianity On The Air (HOCOTA).
This program will include amateur radio operations from numerous sites of major Christian significance. The sites were selected based on well documented research and archeological history as documented in the Holy Bible and other Christian works. We believe that the connection of operating from these holy sites will not only appeal to Christian amateur radio operators but to amateurs of all faiths and beliefs.
The program accreditation will be built from ‘blocks’ of sub-awards derived from specific geographic locations. Activities will run throughout the year with special operations mainly during Christmas and Easter.
The HOCOTA Program will commence during Christmas 2016 (23-25 December) by Four special event multi operator stations. The current sub-program is called the ‘Jesus Miracles Award’.  Within this block of the HOCOTA Program we’ll start with some of the most significant miracles that Jesus Christ performed around the Sea of Galilee.
Therefore, the Christmas 2016 operation shall include:
- 4X9XMAS-Tabagha- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabgha
- 4X7XMAS- Kursi- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kursi,_Golan_Heights
- 4X3XMAS-Mount of Beatitudes – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_of_Beatitudes
- 4X2XMAS- Yardenit- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yardenit
QSL information as well as program rules will be published separately.
Awards – Our goal is to enable automatic award opportunities and we are also considering the availability of an impressive, unique plaque.
