AZDPA - Azerbaijani Districts PSK Award Program

The Azerbaijani Districts PSK Award Program (AZDPA) was established by the European PSK Club to sponsor a series of digital-mode awards based on the administrative geography and amateur radio activity of Azerbaijan. The program recognizes applicants who can demonstrate confirmed contacts with, or confirmed monitoring of, amateur radio stations located in the qualifying Azerbaijani administrative territories.

Any award in this series may be claimed by any licensed radio amateur, club station, or DMS (SWL) eligible under the EPC Awards General Rules, provided that the applicant can produce acceptable evidence in the form of an ADIF log showing qualifying QSOs or monitored receptions.

1. The AZDPA award series is administered in accordance with the EPC Awards General Rules. All applicants must satisfy the eligibility conditions set out therein.
2. The program is open to any licensed radio amateur, amateur radio club station, or DMS (SWL) station recognized under the EPC award framework.
