WIA Awards program

The IARU Worked All Continents (WAC) award can now be applied for by Wireless Institute of Australia members through the WIA Awards program.

he card checking and certification is carried out by the WIA Awards Manager and the certificates are issued by the WIA under agreement with the ARRL Awards Branch. This means that cards no longer need to be submitted overseas for this award - a first for the WIA !

"This is an excellent introductory award for DXer's" said WIA awards manager Allan Meredith VK2CA.
"Only six contacts are required" (one in each continent).
There is also available a 5-Band WAC and various other endorsements that can be gained for the more serious DXer!"
