[LCC] Youth Ham DXpedition - all expenses paid!

[Scott Dickson, W5WZ]

Once again we are sponsoring one young ham operator (21 or under) to join
our team and receive an all expense paid trip to operate in the

2009 CQWW SSB or CW contest with the 6Y1V team. You can reside in any
country in the world and be considered for this opportunity provided you
hold a valid amateur radio license in your country. 

 

This is a gift to a young ham who has a passion for Ham Radio and
DX'ing/contesting. It is our way of giving something back to this great
hobby that has given so much to us!

 

To qualify, you must send an email to contest at 6y1v.com containing an essay
of 500 words or more, in English, describing how you got started in ham
radio, who guided you through the process (tell us about your Elmer), and
tell us why you should be selected for this DX/contest opportunity. Please
include your full name, call sign and home address.

 

We are looking for a young ham (21 or under), with some DX/contest
experience, that would consider this opportunity a dream come true! You must
have your parent's written permission to make the trip on your own, or they
may join you, at their own expense.

 

We will continue to take applications from young hams until September 30,
2009. Our team will review all applicants for the young ham position and
select one young ham to join us for this exciting DXpedition and contest
opportunity. 

 

We will pay all expenses for the young ham, including airfare, license fees,
QTH rental share and food. The rest of the 6Y1V team will ensure this is the
most memorable ham radio experience ever!

 

The selection process is based soley upon each young hams written essay of
500 words or more. 

 

We are particularly interested in young hams that have never operated
outside of their home country, have never been on any DXpedition and would
not otherwise have opportunity to do so under any other circumstances.
