HamSphere 4.0 Alligator DX Hunters Award
|

|
 |
Two avid HamSphere 4.0 users Manuel 31HS1112 and Bruno 14HS4937 started a club called Alligator DX Hunters. They created an Official HamSphere Facebook group the HAMSPHERE ALLIGATOR DX HUNTERS. On this group they will organize games to energize Hamsphere that we all love so much and where we have a great time together. Games based on the exchange of special QSLs and certificates will be provided. Each member will receive a membership card and number. QSL countries and regions, states (USA and CANADA) for each member. All operators are welcome, just apply to Manuel 31HS1112 or Bruno 14HS4937. |
The club has gained interest among the operators and the HamSphere management has granted them a new Official ADXH Award on 11 March 2022 which is automatically issued when the criteria of the award is met.
The criteria is as follows:
|
Work at least 35 IOHS (Islands, see list below) on at least 5 bands over 10-160m. You can only work the same operator once per day. The QSOs should be done using any of the following antennas:
