2012 WARD Award (World Amateur Radio Day Award). The WARD Award is designed
to commemorate the World Amateur Radio Day celebrated by IARU on April 18th
each year. It is issued by the MK QTC, Polish Radio Amateur's Journal, with
the support of PZK, Polish Amateur Radio Union. The WARD will be granted for
at least the following numbers of contacts: either 20 QSOs on the HF bands,
or 10 QSOs on the VHF bands. All contacts must be made between 0000-2400z
on April 18th. Send a standard application form (GCR List - log extract),
including the list of QSOs, on or before May 31st to: The Radio Amateur's
Journal MK QTC, Suchacz-Zamek - Wielmozy 5b, 82-340 Tolkmicko, Poland.
The price of the WARD Award is 7 USDs, 5 IRCs or 5 Euros. The full colored
Award size is: 210 x 297 mm. The WARD Award is also available to SWLs for
the same numbers of reports. For more info on the WARD, see:
http://suchacz.eu/articles.php?article_id=3D42
5B, CYPRUS. Mark, M0DXR, will be active as 5B/M0DXR during the CQWW DX
SSB Contest (October 27-28th) as a Single-Op/All-Band/High-Power entry.

The callsign mentioned is 5V7TH. The exact dates are still to be deter-
mined. Details are forthcoming.
DXCC NEWS (DXCC Card Checking Rule Change). It was announced late last
week that a notice of an upcoming change in an administrative procedure
contained in the DXCC Rules. The change in the DXCC Rules will permit
volunteer Card Checkers who have achieved DXCC on 160 meters to check
160 meter QSLs in the field, and all Card Checkers to check cards for
Deleted Entities. Until now there has been a requirement that 160 meter
cards be checked by Headquarters staff. The main issue has been that some
cards for 18 MHz QSOs can be altered to show 1.8 MHz without the alter-
ation being detected. Therefore, the time of the QSO becomes significant.
Some cards for Deleted Entities date back to 1960 and before, and
sometimes it is difficult in the field to determine what entity the card
ought to count for. Deleted Entities do not count for the DXCC Challenge
or for the Honor Roll but do count toward all-time totals.
After discussion during the teleconference the "Programs and Services
Committee" (PSC) unanimously voted to authorize staff to amend the DXCC
rules as proposed but with no change in how Card Checkers are appointed.
For complete details on the change, please take a look at:

PRESS RELEASE FROM THE DESK OF RADIO ARCALA (By Martti Laine, OH2BH,
dated March 14th) [edited]: "Toni, OH2UA at Controls of Remote CQ8X
in Azores -- Wow, what a weekend it was! Radio Arcala's engineers allowed
a first serious remote contest operation - over the internet - from the
CR2X station located 4500 kilometers away from the actual operating
position. It was a gas running those endless U.S. pileups from the Azores
while gazing at the Northern Lights through the window at home 65 degrees
north. It presented a new challenge, following the words of Hamlet - to be
or not to be (there)?
With ever increasing antenna restrictions and noisier environments, going
remote is the most likely way for serious folks to utilize the current
technology for the common good. Radio Arcala is in the forefront of pushing
for IP address driven station building blocks, such as radios and amps,
while our vision is that each station accessory will soon have its own IP
facility.
Running the highest continental number of QSOs (4543) in a first serious
effort at remote operation shows the potential of the remote concept. There
is still room for improvement and, honestly, it has to be said that the
world is not ready - but we are one step closer.
Radio Arcala welcomes the approach taken by CQ Magazine's and ARRL's
Contest administration in blessing our future by allowing remote operations
in contesting under existing rules.
These QSOs do not count for DXCC but they do count for the true spirit of
Amateur Radio, being in the vanguard of state-of-the-art technology and its
applications.
Radio Arcala, OH8X, is a team of serious hams dedicating their efforts to
interesting and novel areas of amateur radio. They push the issues to
extreme, and their contest team, "Arcala Xtremes, is used as their test
lab to verify the results. Arcala labs are located at 65 degrees north in
the village of Arcala, Finland. <www.radioarcala.com>"
