New 8-Band DXCC award Press Release

The WIA Awards Committee is pleased to announce the expansion of our DXCC Awards to include the 8-Band DXCC Award.

Participants can now apply for this award when they have at least 100 confirmed QSO’s on each of 8 different HF bands.

This additional award caters for users who may never be able to operate on 160M due to various constraints, particularly having enough space to install a 160M antenna. It also fills the huge difficulty gap between the 7- and 9-Band awards.

The WIA Awards program now has Single-Band, 3-Band, 5-Band, 7-Band, 9-Band, and now 8-Band DXCC awards, each with endorsements.

73,
Graham Alston, VK3GA, WIA Awards Manager, on behalf of the Awards Committee
