QSL card checking

There will be a DXCC QSL Card Field Check Session from
1 to 4 pm, on Saturday, 26 April 2008, in the Plaza Room of the Holiday Inn Hotel & Convention Center, 9000 W. Airport Drive, Visalia, CA 93277, in conjunction with the 59th Annual International DX Convention (IDC).

In addition to the DXCC QSL cards normally checked in the field, a representative from the ARRL DXCC Desk will be present at the IDC, permitting the field checking of both deleted and 160 meter QSL cards.

The IDC Field Check Session application line will begin forming in the hallway outside the Plaza Room at 12:30 pm, with applicant processing beginning promptly at 1 pm.

The normal QSL card field checking session limit (150 cards) will be waived, but priority will be given to checking smaller number QSL card application packages (large QSL card check packages may have to wait a bit longer).

Field check applicants should be prepared to present full packages, consisting of: completed ARRL forms (available off the ARRL web site), all QSL cards (sorted to match order in their forms), and payment (the use of credit cards is highly encouraged to speed the application process).
Hybrid applications (those involving both field checked QSL
cards and Logbook of the World credits) will be accepted at this Field Check session.

Contact Jim Zimmerman, N6KZ, IDC DXCC QSL Card Field Check Session Coordinator, at (661) 945-6539 or jimzim1@mindspring.com for additional information regarding the IDC DXCC QSL Card Field Check Session.
