The EPC Members Award Programme
(EPCMA) was devised by the European PSK Club on 10th June 2006. This
was to promote European PSK Club and to sponsor a series of awards
based on PSK contacts with EPC members. The basic EPCDX award is issued
for 100 EPC Numbers. To claim an EPC Number you must work or hear the
call sign to which the number is issued. A Short Wave Listener's EPC
Numbers may be claimed if confirmation is received from the SWL.
Contacts for EPCMA awards count on or after 10th June 2006. The
EPC Members Award Programme consists of seven different awards - EPCDX,
EPCEU, EPCAS, EPCNA, EPCSA and EPCOC. Awards may be claimed by any
licensed radio amateur, club station or SWL eligible under these rules
who can produce evidence in a form of ADIF log of having contacted different EPC members as specified below by using any type of the Phase Shift Keying. All claims must be submitted with the corresponding EPC application form available on our website. QSL-cards
are not required. Awards are issued to the person or club. The person
or club can use any legal call sign. Contacts made from club stations
or special event stations count to the credit of both the club and the
operator. All stations must be operated in accordance with their
licensing conditions. Contacts may be made from any location in the
same DXCC country. Credit will be given for contacts made on any of the
amateur bands below 30 MHz. The
submission for credit of any altered or forged log extractions or,
equally, bad behaviour on or off the air which is judged by the
European PSK Club to bring a particular programme into disrepute may
result in disqualification of the applicant from the EPCMA Award
Programme. The decision of the award manager on this and other matters
of dispute will be finals. All
EPCMA awards are issued in high quality PDF format, and sent via email
to the applicants. Awards could be printed then correctly, with the
highest quality and with optimal performance by applicants themselves.
All EPCMA awards are free of charge for EPC members. 50 contacts with EPC members from Europe | | 15 contacts with EPC members from Asia | 5 contacts with EPC members from Africa | | 20 contacts with EPC members from North America | 10 contacts with EPC members from South America | | 5 contacts with EPC members from Oceania | 100 contacts with EPC members World Wide | | |
