The 36EUDXF Activity Month is history
This afternoon I thanked the operators of the various 36EUDXF stations for their efforts to make the 36EUDXF activity week to a succes.
They made sure that there was activity and a daily presence of 36EUDXF related stations on various bands and many modes.
An indepth analysis will follow shortly.
There is one conclusion which we can mention here; the 36EUDXF ACTIVITY Month really brought EUDXF activity.
For those who worked an selection of 36EUDXF station please feel free to apply for the 36EUDXF award:
This award can be obtained by making contact with the various 36EUDXF station active from a number of countries during the November 2022 EUDXF Activity Month .
The award will be available in 4 different classes:
- Bronze: 10 QSO’s with at least 3 special 36EUDXF stations from at least 3 different countries
- Silver: 20 QSO’s with at least 5 different 36EUDXF stations from at least 4 different countries.
- Gold: 30 QSO’s with at least 8 different 36EUDXF stations from at least 5 different countries.
- Platinum: 30 QSO’s with all activated minus one 36EUDXF stations. (At least one QSO should be made with every 36EUDXF station minus one activated in 2022.)
Please note that working or hearing the same station on the same band in the same mode will only count for 1 QSO for the award. Any other combination counts as a valid QSO.
The award will be available for free in an digital format.
A printed award will be made available against cost of 10 Euro/Dollar.
Valid stations for the award: DQ36EUDXF – HA36EUDXF – OO36EUDXF – PA36EUDXF – PB36EUDXF – PC36EUDXF – PD36EUDXF – PE36EUDXF – PF36EUDXF – PG36EUDXF – PH36EUDXF – PI36EUDXF – TM36EUDX and VK36EUDXF.
Currently my mailbox is getting filled with award application which is a good sign.
The QSL cards are printed and on our way to my mailbox so I hope to start answering QSL request also soonest.

36EUDXF Activity Month is in a flow
Halfway through the activity month it is time to see where we are…..
With 13 active stations and over 15000K qso’s in the log we can speak of a real November Activity Month, and we’re only halfway there.
The appearance of the surprise VK36EUDXF station from Down Under added another dimension to the broad activity from Europe.
Due to last minute changes in the participants, it unfortunately took a few days in November before we were able to determine the final 36EUDXF Award rules.
We have already received several applications for the 36EUDXF Award, including those for the gold award.
There are still plenty of opportunities with half a month to go.
