Olá amigos,

There are two new overlay categories in the upcomingCQ WPX SSB and CW 
contests <https://www.cqwpx.com/>. These CLASSIC overlays will appeal to 
those operators who wish to remain in (or revert to) simpler times 
before the complexity of multi-radio setups.

In addition to the popular TB-Wires and Rookie overlays for single 
operator stations, we have

added a CLASSIC overlay for single operator stations. This CLASSIC 
overlay is perfect for the traditional "boy and his radio" style 
operation. The entrant will use only one radio and no QSO finding 
assistance. It is similar to the CLASSIC overlay introduced in the CQWW 
contests, but does not have a 24-hour time limitation because all single 
operators are already limited to 36 hours in the WPX contests.

The second overlay is for MULTI-ONE stations. It is also labeled CLASSIC 
(so your existing logging software will have no difficulty adding the 
overlay). It is aimed at the traditional "bunch of guys sharing a radio" 
crowd, in that only one radio can be used during the contest (no second 
radio to listen while the first one is transmitting). All other 
Multi-One rules apply, including the use of spotting assistance.

As a reminder, selecting an overlay category is optional. Results of the 
overlay categories are listed in addition to the results in the main 
categories, so you can get a second certificate for the same contest, if 
your log is submitted within the 5 days after the contest deadline.
