NCDXF DXCELLENCE AWARD

[IK0ZCW]

"In April 2021, the Northern California DX Foundation announced the creation of the 'NCDXF DXcellence Award' - to be given to the outstanding DXpedition of the previous twelve months. The award is intended to recognize excellence in a DXpedition that received funding from NCDXF as exemplified by its practices, ethics, management, transparency, impact upon the DXing community and, lastly, exhibited fun!
The winner of the award is determined by the NCDXF Board of Directors. The board considers several factors, including performance, complexity of the DXpedition and impact on Club Log's most wanted ranking. Especially important are activities associated with supporting local humanitarian and educational needs.
At our annual Board of Directors Meeting at the IDXC in Visalia last weekend, we voted on this year's award and decided that two DXpeditions deserved one. The following presentations were made:
* The N5J Jarvis DXpedition received the NCDXF DXcellence Award at the IDXC Banquet for their successful 100% RIB operation on Jarvis Island.
* The 3D2Y Rotuma youth DXpedition received the NCDXF DXcellence Award at the IDXC DX Forum. Their support of youth with a host of youth remote operators was very impressive.
The NCDXF looks forward to DXpeditions this year that may qualify for the next award in 2026. We are hopeful that many DXpeditions will be funded by NCDXF and qualify for this award".
The mission of NCDXF is to provide necessary financial support for wellorganized DXpeditions to desirable DXCC entities and to support advances in DXpeditioning skills, technology, and infrastructure: https://www.ncdxf.org.
