Hello all
100y scouting award
here the detail - from http://www.scouting100award.org
Objective To help celebrate the centenary of Scouting through the medium of
radio. To help publicise the Centenary, and to provide radio amateurs the
opportunity of gaining another Award. Although not intended for profit, any
surplus made will go to support Radio Scouting in developing countries.
Duration The Award will begin at 00:00:01 on January 1st 2007 and finish at
23:59:59 December 31st 2007.
Bands and Modes The Award is available through all bands and all modes,
within the terms of the individual’s radio licence. The Award is also
available through Echolink and IRLP modes. The Award can be endorsed for any
special modes or bands ie ‘All satellite contacts’; ‘all QRP contacts’ etc.
Activity for the Award should be focused around the Scout frequencies.
The award is available on a listener basis, with exactly the same
requirements as the operator award.
Requirement
Stations are required to contact Scout and Guide stations to count for points
as follows:
Each ordinary Scout station counts one point.
Each Scout station can only be counted once, regardless of band or mode.
Special Event Scout stations count 2 points.
The World Jamboree, Gilwell Park and Brownsea Island stations count 5 points.
Your logs should be verified as accurate by 2 other local radio amateurs.
Normal log information is required with, in addition: name, Scout callsign
and Scout details (Scout Group, Scout position ie Leader or Scout etc) along
with the age of the other operator.
Your age should also be submitted when applying for Awards.
Female operators send 'YL' in place of their age!
Points can be claimed regardless of the callsign you are operating from, but
only for yourself. In other words... if you are operating a club station with
a club callsign, you can claim the points for the Scout station you work, but
those around you cannot claim the points, just because they heard the Scout
station!
The Award is split into a total of five categories:
The Bronze Award:
For achieving 15 points by contacting Scout stations.
The Silver Award:
For achieving 50 points by contacting Scout stations.
The Gold Award:
For achieving 100 points by contacting Scout stations
The Platinum Award:
For achieving 250 points by contacting Scout stations.
The Diamond Award:
