Rules for the SKCC Tribune Award:

1. Tribune is achieved when a Centurion makes contact and exchanges SKCC Numbers and Name with 50 different SKCC Centurions and Tribunes.

2. Only contacts made ON OR AFTER 1 March 2007 count toward the SKCC Tribune Award.

3. Neither the SKCC Club Call (K9SKC) nor any Special Event Callsign (such as K3Y) will be accepted for credit for QSOs logged on or after 1 October 2008. However, you may use the call sign of the actual station operator provided that you have not already used that operator on the Tribune application.

4. Both parties in the QSO must be SKCC Centurions or Tribunes at the time of the QSO. Any callsign used to achieve the Tribune Award can only be used once for that purpose. That is, if you work AC2C as a Centurion and then AC2C becomes a Tribune, you can't work AC2C again just because he became a Tribune.

5. Contacts may be made on any available band at anytime (including WARC Bands.)

6. QSO’s MUST be made using a Straight Key or a BUG. (Side Swipers are a Cross between a Bug and a Straight key so are also accepted.)

7. Centurions are encouraged to send their SKCC numbers with the letter C appended to the end to both proudly announce their achievement and make it easy for Tribune candidates to note the contact. Tribunes are encouraged to send their SKCC numbers with the letter T appended to the end for the same reasons.

8. Endorsements for every 50 additional Centurions contacted will be available as will special recognition for contacting 50 Centurions on a single band.

9. All applications are processed on a PC by the administrator. Thus, all data must be entered into the PC before processing can begin. It is strongly suggested that the Tribune Award & Endorsements Application be used to submit for this award. If, for any reason, you are unable to submit a computer-readable application form, please contact the award administrator before submitting your application.
