The "Ontario Award" is sponsored by the
Ontario DX Association. We launched this award in
1999 in celebration of our organization's 25th
anniversary.
This award is available world-wide to any amateur
making successful two-way contact with the 48 political
subdivisions of Ontario along with VE3ODX (club station of
the Ontario DX Association) and VA3RAC (Ontario club
station of Radio Amateurs of Canada). This award is also
available to shortwave listeners.
Contacts must have been made after April 1, 1999 and
can be on any band or mode. Repeater contacts do not
qualify.
Applicants for the award must submit $5.00 Canadian (or
equivalent) or 5 IRC'S along with a log extract (No QSL
cards are required) certified by two executive members of
a recognized amateur radio club, association or society OR
where no amateur radio club, association or society exists
the log extract may be certified by two amateurs holding
whatever the highest license grade is in the applicants
country.
