THE BASICS
Jay WA0WWW is our representative maintaining the SDXA’s scores and submitting them to the PNW group as they occur.
There is both the tally of the SDXA members between each other (SDXA awards a certificate at the its Annual Awards Banquet for the highest total SDXA member and any SDXA member who enters and submits for all ten contests) and then the tally of the six clubs between each other.
