BCC QSO Party

The Bavarian Contest Club's two-hour Thursday-evening 80m QSO parties, spring and autumn, with a T-shirt-size exchange.

Rules at bavarian-contest-club.deThe rules are the sponsor's. This page holds the dates and the facts.

When it runs

Dates set by the sponsor each year (no derivable rule)

1900Z → 2059Z

Times are UTC, as the sponsor states them.

The sponsor announces these dates a year at a time and there is no rule to derive, so this calendar holds only the years they have published: 2026.

Next runnings

The sponsor sets this date each year rather than by a rule, and has published through 2026. Years they have not announced are absent rather than guessed.

Where this comes from

Checked against the sponsor: Yes. The rule on this page was read off BCC's own published rules. Link last confirmed 2026-10-15.
What the source says: bavarian-contest-club.de 2026 Ausschreibung: Thursday 19 March 1900-2059 UTC and Thursday 17 September 1800-1959 UTC, 80m, CW/SSB/RTTY. Cabrillo upload at dl6mhw.de/~dl6mhw/bcc, deadline one hour after the end. Read 2026-10-15.
Recorded caveats: Two runnings a year with different clocks, published for 2026 only; no recurrence is stated, so manual. The classes page says both 'QRP/Low/High' and 'keine Leistungsbeschraenkung'.

Something wrong? How to report it — a link to the sponsor's own page is all it takes.

Subscribe (iCal)This record as JSON

Subscribe (iCal) carries this contest's runnings for the next twelve months as UTC instants and keeps them current. Apple Calendar, Outlook and Thunderbird take this address directly. Its identifiers are stable across deploys, so re-subscribing does not duplicate anything: https://contestclock.com/api/ics?id=bcc-qso-party

Google has no working one-click subscribe. Paste that address into Settings → Add calendar → From URL. Google then polls it on its own schedule, often 8–24 hours, and that cannot be forced — so use Add to Google Calendar above if you want the next running in your calendar now.
