30-30 Award Comments: The 30-30 Award is presented as an alternative to the QSO-A-Day Award for those who for one reason or other just can't get on the air each and every day even for such a short period as a month. Note the new DX endorsement. Time Frame For Qualifying QSO's: January 1, 2006 0000Z through the present Basic Award Premise: Make 30 QSO's on 30 meters during a calendar month using as few as 1 day up to as many as 31 days to get the QSO's. Categories: A - Single Month B - Three Months (30-30 Magnum) Equipment: YOU: Power: QRP Antenna: Any HAM YOU WORK: Power: Any Antenna: Any QSOs: Rag chew and DX QSO's are acceptable. Just sitting on the County Hunters Net frequency and racking up QSO's is not permissible. However, you may count a maximum of two QSO's from the CHN each month. Other: You can earn as many as 12 Single Month awards per year or as many as 4 30-30 Magnum awards per year. The months for the Magnums do not have to be consecutive. Once a month is used for a Magnum, that month cannot be used again for a future Magnum. That is if you use Jan-Feb-Apr for a Magnum, you can't use Jan, Feb, or Apr for any future Magnums. If you earn a 30-30 for a single month and get a certificate, you may use that month toward one Magnum award as well. Certificate: Issued for each Single Month Award or for each Magnum Award. A certificate sent to you via email is FREE. You may make a monetary donation, only if you wish to do so. There is no obligation to do so. If you want us to print your certificate and send it via regular mail, the fee is $3.00 per certificate. Web Site Listing: All those receiving a certificate will be listed on the web site. Endorsements: May be endorsed for all QSOs being DX QSOs. Logs: Send a list with one QSO per line containing at least the following sorted in ascending order by date: Date, Time, Station Worked.
