NZART AWARDS

NZART currently offers 23 different amateur radio awards. They offer a range of challenges. Some are relatively easy to attain and others are very difficult. All awards are open to all licensed amateur radio operators and to shortwave listeners.

Cross-band operation is not acceptable for any awards. 4. Repeater QSOs are valid only when specifically stated in the individual award rules. 5. Awards are open to SWL (shortwave listeners) as well as amateur radio operators.
