The overlay categories are treated as separate “Contests within a Contest” and have their own awards and score listings. Entrants are scored and ranked in their regular categories and then again in the overlay category. There are separate awards available for each. The overlay categories are only for single operator high power and single operator low power entrants. Assisted, QRP, or multi-op entries are not eligible for the overlay categories. To enter the overlay category, you MUST include the CATEGORY-OVERLAY: line in the header of your log file. Use CATEGORY-OVERLAY: TB-WIRES or CATEGORY-OVERLAY: ROOKIE.
