Where this comes from
- Checked against the sponsor
- Yes. The rule on this page was read off Hoosier DX and Contest Club's own published rules. Link last confirmed 2026-10-15.
- What the source says
Sponsor's own rules (http://www.hdxcc.org/inqp/rules.html), read 2026-10-15: 'Contest starts at 1500 UTC Saturday and ends at 0259 UTC Sunday the first full weekend of May.' 'For 2026, this is May 2-3.'

Take it with you
Add to Google CalendarSubscribe (iCal)This record as JSON
Add to Google Calendar puts the next running in as a single event. It is one event, not a subscription — come back for the one after it, or use the feed below.
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=indiana-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.
