A K3Y QRP Sweep

The Straight Key Century Club (SKCC) was founded following the ARRL’s “Straight Key Night” of January 1st., 2006. In celebration of its 10th anniversary, during January 2016, the SKCC has been running the “SKCC January K3Y Anniversary Event” in which designated Club operators go on the air using the Club’s K3Y special call followed by a single figure representing each of the ten call areas in the US. SKCC members that during the month of January suceed in working and exchanging SKCC numbers with all ten K3Y/0-9 calls can then claim a special SKCC K3Y Sweep Certificate. This year, K3Y stations have been operating also from other points in the US as well as DX locations (indicated as endorsements on the certificate):
