NCDXC 50th Anniversary Celebratio

On October 10, 1996 the Northern California DX Club will celebrate its 50th anniversary. The anniversary day will be the kick-off for a year of on-the-air events for NCDXC members and DX stations.

Activities for DX Stations

There will be an award given to any DX station who submits a log showing contacts with 50 different NCDXC members during the anniversary year. QSL cards will not be required. A contact with the NCDXC club callsign, W6TI, will count as ten QSOs towards the 50 required. The W6TI club callsign will be activated throughout the year by various club members. Members will be making an effort to work DX stations during the time they are using the callsign. Club members may choose to sign /NCDXC or /50 after their home callsigns to help identify themselves as club members. A certificate commemorating the NCDXC 50th Anniversary will be sent to those stations qualifying. The usual log information (Date, Time, Station worked & Band) should be included with the submission. Submissions should be sent to the club address as follows:


Northern California DX Club
P.O. Box 608
Menlo Park, California 94026-0608 USA

Awards will be mailed out at the completion of the anniversary year- Oct. 10, 1997.

Spreading the Word

If you are the editor of a DX bulletin or club newsletter outside the U.S., please consider putting this information in your publication. We'd like for as many DX stations as possible to find out about our anniversary.

Miscellaneous

A 50th Anniversary web page has been set up. The information contained in this announcement and more is located at:
http://www.aa6g.org/ncdxc50.html
Updates will be made throughout the year.

There is a link on the "Activites for DX Stations" page to the NCDXC club roster. This may be used as a reference to distinguish contacts with NCDXC members from other California stations. A text version of the roster is downloadable from the page.

QSL cards for contacts with the W6TI club callsign should go to the club address with a self addressed envelope and applicable return postage or sent via the bureau.

Please e-mail questions or comments to: aa6g@aa6g.org

We hope you'll consider participating in our celebration.

73 & GL,

Chuck - AA6G, aa6g@aa6g.org
