DXCC "Challenge" certificate


HH Brakob
 

Last year I’d heard that a paper certificate had been authorized for the “Challenge” award.  (Previously a rather expensive plaque was the only item available to commemorate this tough award.)

 

I was told that the certificate was “in Graphics”.  Is there any further news?

Hans;

Did you ever get an answer on this? I am very close, but unwilling to pay the price of the plaque. I’ve handed out very attractive plaques to my club for far less money than ARRL is charging, and they were real wood.

No answer, Dale, except that the idea has been blessed by (?) and is “in graphics”. 

 

This is by far the hardest award I’ve ever chased, way harder than 5BDXCC or WAZ, so I was flabbergasted when I found there was only a $90-some plaque, no paper certificate like DXCC.
