Yes - in order to count, all contacts must be confirmed on QRZ by both parties - just like all other QRZ awards Dave W7UUU
I had 15m and 17m within a couple of weeks and today I landed 10m. I have 7 each for 12m and 20m so will be focusing on them next. Fun stuff.
Well, I finally got all bands except for "the magic band", 6 meters. That one is proving to be a bit harder.
I like the awards and the confirmations. Many hams as myself are still working for the Fun, awards and of course the DX. Confirm your QSOs. Love the 12 Days of Christmas award and the Awards from QRZ 73's from WNY De N2VPJ Bob
Well I got them all except 6m and 160m. 160 meters is not going to happen I have no antenna for that band and 6 meters has been kinda dead here in the midwest but will keep trying for the 6 meter endorsement. Any way its been fun trying! Happy Hew year Good dxing 73 Steve KB9HGI
Hello Steve KB9HGI I try to achieve as much as i can. The most important things i feel are obtainable goals and the enjoyment of being in the Amateur radio community and making new friends. I just started out on 6 meters and have made a few contacts but no DX yet .Looking for more DX 73s friend de N2VPJ Bob
