DXCC Card Checking

(April 27, 2006) DXCC card checking (courtesy of Dick, K7BTW; Al, K7AR and Dick, K4XU) is confirmed for the Convention. For some FAQ's about the process, go to http://www.qsl.net/k7ar/dxcc.htm

Note: There is now a reciprocal agreement in place between RAC (Radio Amateurs of Canada) and the ARRL that allows any USA-based DXCC card checker to check cards in Canada.

Through the generosity of our regional DXCC Card checkers, we will be offering a DXCC Card checking service during the Convention. Please check this page nearer to the event for details concerning the date and hours of operation for this service.

In anticipation of having your cards checked, please ensure you follow the standard DXCC Field Checking process regulations. In particular, please note the following reference to dates and 160m cards:

All cards dated ten years or less from the calendar year of the application may be checked, except for those awards specifically excluded from the program. 160 meter cards are currently excluded from this program. QSL's for years more than ten calendar years from the application date must be submitted directly to ARRL Headquarters. All deleted entities must be submitted to ARRL HQ.
