From September 19–27, 2026 the “C.K. Dezerterzy” award event will take place. Its purpose is to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the premiere of Janusz Majewski’s film, which took place on September 22, 1986. The event is organized by the Polish Amateur Radio Operators Group of Europe.
The activators will operate on the HF, VHF, and UHF bands. The rules allow a wide range of modes: SSB, CW, FT8, FT4, RTTY, FM, DMR, C4FM, and D-STAR. Contacts with the same station may be repeated on other bands and using other modes, as well as on subsequent days of the event.
A basic contact earns one point. For QSOs made using SSB, CW, FT8, FT4, and RTTY a ×2 multiplier applies. Operators from Poland must accumulate at least 40 points, European stations 20 points, and DX stations outside Europe 2 points. SWLs are required to score 200 points.
The award will be available exclusively in electronic form through RadioDyplom.pl. According to the rules, the earliest date on which it can be downloaded will be September 28, 2026. Commemorative electronic QSL cards have also been prepared for individual activators.
