The WIA Awards Program

The Wireless Institute of Australia Awards Program is seen as one of the world’s best, thanks to retiring Awards Manager Malcolm Johnson VK6LC.

Michael Wright VK5ARD

Managing the WIA Awards involves not only a great deal of administrative and organisational effort in validating claims for awards but also requires a good knowledge of DXing in applying the award conditions in a consistent and reasonable manner to maintain the integrity of the awards.

The WIA Board has now created an Awards Committee headed by the Awards Manager. The Committee will bring together a group of experienced DXers, providing valuable assistance and guidance for the Awards Manager and adding credibility to the Program.

The WIA has appointed Michael Wright VK5ARD as the new WIA Awards Manager.
The other members of the Awards Committee are:
• Martin Luther VK7GN
• Dale McCarthy VK4DMC
• David McCauley VK3EW
• Alex Petkovic VK6APK

The new address for the WIA Awards Program is:
Awards Manager
WIA National Awards
PO Box 752
Roxby Downs
South Australia 5725

The email address of the WIA Awards Program remains awards@wia.org.au
