    To celebrate 25 years of the First Class CW Operators Club's in-house magazine FOCUS, the 100th edition of which will be published on 1 January 2015, FOC members will be calling "CQ FOC25."

    When: 00:00 GMT, 25 December 2014 until 23:59 GMT, 5 January 2015.

    Bands
    : All nine HF bands 1.8-28 MHz; CW only. Work each station once per-band.


    Exchange
    : Members may call ‘CQ FOC25’. There is no mandatory exchange beyond call-signs. However, members may send their membership number and may indicate if they count for bonus points, as below.
