Logging QSOs with WAE Countries
DARC's WAE award is based on working European DXCC entities plus 6 additional countries, each of which is wholly contained within a European DXCC entity:
WAE Country |
Containing DXCC entity |
WAE Prefix |
Bear Island |
Svalbard |
JW/B |
European Turkey |
Turkey |
TA1 |
ITU Vienna |
Austria |
4U1V |
Kosovo |
Serbia |
YU8 |
Shetland Island |
Scotland |
GM/S |
Sicily |
Italy |
IT9 |
To enable logged QSOs to specify a WAE country, check the CQ, WAE, Holyland region select box in the Other awards panel on the Configuration window's Awards tab.
When you log a QSO with one of the above WAE countries with the CQ, WAE, Holyland region select box checked, a Region textbox will appear in the Capture window, and in the Awards panel on the Main window's Log QSOs tab. In the Region textbox, specify the appropriate WAE Prefix from the table above. If you are also pursuing the Worked All Britain (WAB) award, then in the Region textbox of a QSO with Shetland Island, record your QSO partner's WAB square rather than GM/S.
