[SJDXA] ARRL card checker

[Bob Schenck N2OO]

We have discussed at times over the years how to become an ARRL card
checker.

I just got this quote from the ARRL web site.

As you will see, we need 25 members (as a DX Club) in order to nominate
someone from within. So, we need to recruit some more members if we want to
do this.

 

>From the website:

 

"DXCC CARD CHECKER NOMINATIONS: 

 

(a) DXCC Card Checkers must be ARRL members who have a DXCC award endorsed
for at least 150 entities; 

 

(b) To become a DXCC Card Checker an applicant must be nominated by: 

 

      i) ARRL Section Manager, or; 

 

      ii) ARRL affiliated DX Club (A DX club is an ARRL affiliated club with
at least 25 members who are DXCC members and which has, as its primary

       interest, DX. If there are any questions regarding the validity of a
DX club, the issue shall be determined by the Division Director where the DX
club

        is  located.) A person does not have to be a member of the DX club
to be nominated, or; 

 

iii) ARRL Division Director 

 

(c) All nominations, once submitted, must first be approved by the ARRL
Division Director for USA nominations, or the Vice President for
International Affairs for non-USA nominations; 

 

(d) Must be personally known to the DX club or Section Manager nominating
them; 

 

(e) DXCC Card Checkers are appointed by the Membership & Volunteer Programs
Manager; 

 

(f) DXCC .Card Checker appointments are automatically renewed every 2 years
and renewal is determined by performance as determined by the DXCC Manager. 

 

NOTE: 

 

. A Section Manager is allowed to nominate only one Card Checker. If that
checker resigns the Section Manager may nominate a replacement. However, a
new Section Manager may not make a nomination if the ARRL Section already
has an appointment; 

 

. Each Affiliated DX Club may nominate only one Card Checker. If that
checker resigns the club may nominate a replacement. The DX club must have,
at least, 25 members who are DXCC program participants; 

 

. A Division Director may make one nomination within their division. "
