Introduction to County Hunting

In the United States. there are 3077 jurisdictions (counties, parishes, districts). CQ Magazine offers an award for making 2-way amateur radio contacts with stations in those jurisdictions. The award is the United States All Counties Award (USA CA).

I, (WA9LKD), holds USA-CA #946. At the June meeting 0f the High Desert Amateur Radio Club, I will present a talk on “Introduction to County Hunting”. Topics will include requirements for the award, MARAC (Mobile Amateur Radio Awards Club), County Hunting Nets, where to find additional information, and hints on how to start on county hunting.

Warning- county hunting can be addictive.
