Who can enter

Anyone, anywhere.

PSKfest's own page states no entrant clause, unlike most other 070 contests. The club's general rules impose no membership requirement and the SPC exchange is open to anyone, so worldwide is the strong reading -- but it is a reading, not a quote.

Where this comes from

Checked against the sponsor

Yes. The rule on this page was read off PODXS 070 Club's own published rules. Link last confirmed 2026-08-12.

What the source says

podxs070.com PSKfest rules, DATE: '0000-2359 UTC On the 1st Saturday following January 1st'. BANDS: '80 thru 10 meters, no WARC bands'. Cross-checked against the club's own 'Contest Calendar' page, which states each recurrence rule in words AND publishes a projected date table for 2026-2035. Both agree. The club's table gives 8-Jan-28 and 8-Jan-33 -- both years in which January 1 is itself a Saturday -- confirming 'following January 1st' excludes January 1.

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

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=podxs-pskfest

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.
