    I see two more awards possible using the ARRL continents definition framework: Africa and Oceania. WAZ would be a nice one as well.

    It was quite pleased to see the North America award this morning.

    Would be great, but now most of the places with few ham radio operators want to get paid to confirm qso's.

    Same here. Also the award is showing under my previous call sign from 25 years ago, not my present call.

    We'll work on The Virgin Islands report this morning. Thanks all! And don't fret, we know that many of you are waiting for Africa. It's in the works as well.

    I understand for paper QSL to cover the costs and some are very nice btw.
    But on many electronic logs there is no or very little cost to confirm.

    In some cases the purpose is to cover the cost of the station because in many places this is not really as simple as click and collect…

    I never thought that I would get into chasing awards, but I was wrong.

    The US Virgin Islands issue seems to be fixed, I have gotten credit for all my USVI contacts.

    Chasing awards is fun. Gives you a goal to strive for. I think it’s great that QRZ is adding more.
