FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DXCC Announces New 30-Meter Award

DXCC is pleased to announce the addition of the 30-Meter (10 MHz) Single Band DXCC award. Applications for this award will be accepted beginning October 1, 2002. 30-Meter DXCC certificates will be dated but not numbered. 30-Meter credits will count toward the DeSoto Cup competition ending September 30, 2003. They will also be included in the DXCC Annual List totals for the period ending on that date. A 30-Meter endorsement to 5 Band DXCC will also be available.

The 30-meter band was added to the standard printout in January 2002. If you received a copy of your record since then, you already have a copy of your 30-meter credits. If you do not know which credits you have on 30 meters, you can contact DXCC for a copy of your record. If you have web access and can handle ADOBE (pdf) files, contact DXCC at dxcc@arrl.org for a copy of your record. If you do not have web access, please send a note to DXCC along with $2.00 (US and Canada), $4.00 (outside the US and Canada) for postage and handling. For further information, please contact DXCC at dxcc@arrl.org
