Check - ins should do so personally, proxy check - ins are legitimate only for members on club business. "In and Out" check - ins, though allowed, should be discouraged.

Awards are earned for 50 points and multiples thereof; plaques for the highest annual HF and VHF scores. Awards are meant to encourage participation and can be earned by any licensed amateur.

Net logs must be readable and include the calls and names of check - ins, as well as NCO, date, and mode of net

NCO's: I would prefer that you email your logs. Forward net logs to the Awards Manager within 30 days; logs received later will not earn the bonus points normally awarded a NCO. Mail your logs to: Bill, N8MNX, 500 7th Street, Apt. W, Rochester, MI 48307; Email bstran@yahoo.com

If you notice any errors in the database, wrong or changed call signs, misspelled names, or other, let Bill know as soon as possible.
