The ARI DX 2025 Results has been released by the contest manager Filippo Vairo/IZ1LBG. You can download them in .pdf format from this link. The propagation didn’t help us in the 2025 issue, for this the logs received from foreing station were a little bit less than 2024.
I post the partecipats table downloaded from the ARI site
One week after ARI DX Contest 2025. Until today 1436 logs arrived to contest committee, it confirm a small decreasing of logs respect last year, but we can check it esactly at the pubblication final results.
This year i used the special contest call IP3U. Now I’ll propose my raw score, the statistics and few comments. First the table rate graph with qso per hours and bands:
Less than one month to the Italian International Dx Contest 2025. It will take place the first weekend of may starting at 12:00 UTC of saturday 3rd and ending sunday 4th at 11:59 UTC. It’s a world wide type, but qso with italian station counts 10 points and each italian province counts one multiplier other than the DXCC list and WAE list. I’ll participate with a new special contest call IP3U.
The CQ organisation published the CQ 160CW raw scores 2025. The participation has been massive they received 2107 logs from world wide.
I hope for a better performance next year.

The ARRL CW 2025, has been the first contest in which i used my new special contest call IP3U. I got a lot of fun, what a pity the contest is 48 hours long. I don’t enjoy the two days long contests. I prefer the 24 hour ones like the ARI International Dx Contest that take place the first weekend of may.
There have been a lot of participants both from North America and outside North America. In few hours I contacted almost 500 North American stations.
EUDX 2025 comments. Despite its fifth edition the EUDX contest organization received 1881 logs. Bands was crowded and i had a lot of fun.
I operated for thirteen hours in Single Operator CW High Power category. I used six bands with 500 watt excluded on 160 metres that I have 100 watt only. The EUDX is world wide type contest but most traffic has been exchanged between european stations. I didn’t contacted any african station and just a few North American stations.
The EUDX 2025 comments will follow with my declared score and statistics, elaborated by the logger QARTest.
La mia attività di Radioamatore consiste nella caccia al dx, partecipazione a Contest nazionali e internazionali in HF, ricerca e restauro di apparati storici Vintage.
