#QSY Requests

QSY Requests articles deal with asking another station to move to a different band so that you can work it there as a new multiplier. Many contests allow this and many contesters ask for it, but the rules and good manners differ from contest to contest. A request has to be short, polite and clear, and the answer has to be logged carefully on the new band. The articles stay general and always point you to the current official rules of the contest you operate. They also show how a QSY changes your rate and your multiplier count. Used well, a QSY request is one of the cheapest ways to add a multiplier.
