Award rules
Greek Lighthouse Award has
been instituted by the Northern
Greece Contest Team and will be issued to any Ham Radio
operator or SWL for QSOs with (or reports from) amateur radio
stations operating from Greek's lighthouses.
The aim of the award is to encourage
and promote amateur radio activity from Greek lighthouses, both
by local hams and those from abroad, which also will promote Greek
tourism.
The idea for the Greek Lighthouse Award came from Savas, SV2AEL.
Design of Diploma came from SV2HRV, Diana and SV2CWV, Kwstas.
