Worked All California Counties Award (W.A.C.C.)
The Northern California Contest Club sponsors the WACC award for stations working all 58 California counties. An excellent way to do this is during the annual CQP (California QSO Party) held the first weekend of October. Questions can be answered by K6DGW
5 Meg Award Program
The 5 Meg award has generated a lot of interest since it started in July 1986. This award is intended to give recognition for sustained efforts by NCCC members. All too often club members compete with moderate stations, year-in and year-out without a reasonable chance actually to win major awards. The Five Million Point Award is designed to rectify this situation. This award is issued on a once-per-person basis. From time to time, the rules and standings will be published in the JUG. Any questions about the rules, or of any points totals should be addressed to Fred Jensen, K6DGW
