NAQCC Awards

IMPORTANT: We now have a new Awards Manager - Rick AA4W. See the General Rules or the Contact Us page for his address, etc.

The NAQCC offers an extensive array of awards, at least one or more of which should appeal to every member's tastes.

Some duplicate other organizations' awards, but ours are FREE - WAS, WAC, 1000MPW, etc.

Others we believe are unique to the NAQCC, unless they have been copied by other organizations since their inception - QSO-A-Day, 30-30, etc.

Certificates are now emailed to winners hence we no longer charge a fee for them. However if you wish to make a donation to the club, we won't refuse it. There is no obligation whatsoever to make a donation though. We will charge a fee of $3.00 IF you want us to print your certificate and send it via regular mail.

We now have a nice incentive to work towards and earn our NAQCC awards thanks to Gregg WB8LZG. I'm sure you all know by now of his beautiful hand-crafted bug/paddle handles, and how we gave away 13 sets of them to participants in our monthly challenges. Now Gregg has designed some beautiful hand-crafted knob insets for the K1 and K2 rigs. If you own one of those rigs or are planning on purchasing one in the future, read on after you look at this picture of them.

We're giving away 5 of Gregg's K2 knobs and 2 of his K1 knobs. You can win one by earning and applying for any TWO of the following NAQCC awards. Only new applications filed after September 30, 2008 count. It's first come, first served, so make haste. Gregg insists that club officers also be eligible to win a knob, so we are changing our rules in this case and honoring Gregg's request. Be sure to remind us when you have earned your two awards as only one person processes a ton of info for the club, and it is easy to overlook something under that situation.
