The newly formed North American QRP CW Club is sponsoring a new award for the coming year. Since 2005 is a mere three weeks away; now is a good time for all you
folks begin thinking about it.
The award is "The QSO a Day Award"; and it's purpose is to increase QRP CW activity on the air waves.

The goal is simple to remember - make at least one QRP CW QSO a day - every day! You can earn a certificate for doing this for at least one month; or string 'em
all together and do it for a full year! There are twelve different classes of awards that will be issued.

The criteria are:

A ham can only earn one of the 12 classes of the award.

A QSO is defined as a legitimate contact with another amateur station whether it be a long rag chew or a quick signal report exchange in a contest or with a DX
station.

All QSO's must be made using CW at QRP power levels, i.e. 5 watts or less transmitter output.

None of the QSO's may come from a pre-arranged schedule with another ham.

None of the QSO's may come from a net of any kind.

For classes 2A through 3B, the months do not have to be consecutive.

A day is defined as 0000-2400 UTC.

A QSO may only count for one day, i.e. a QSO that starts at 2355 UTC on March 4th and ends at 0010 UTC on March 5th only counts as a QSO for March 4th. In other
words the starting time of a QSO determines for which day a QSO counts.
