Brass Pounders League

The Brass Pounders League is open to all amateurs in the US, Canada and US possessions who report to their Section Managers a total of 500 or more points or a sum of 100 or more origination and delivery points for any calendar month.  Messages must be handled on amateur radio frequencies within 48 hours of receipt in standard ARRL radiogram format.

A description of how an individual radio amateur should properly count traffic handling points (for his or her monthly Station Activity Report and also for the monthly Brass Pounders League credit) may be found in the ARRL Public Service Communications Manual – and specifically at via this ARRL Web page link.
