#ARI DX

The ARI International DX Contest is a yearly event organised by the Italian amateur radio association, in which stations around the world work Italian stations and Italian stations work the world. The exchange is different for the two sides: Italian stations traditionally send a province code, and other stations send a serial number. The contest is run with more than one mode, so the categories and the log header need careful reading.
