How card checking works (for DXCC)

  • Browse to EasyDXCC and follow the steps there. You will upload (or type in) your QSO details, make payment and print two forms. The first form is a cover sheet and the second is a QSO detail sheet (as many as needed).
  • Prepare #10 business size envelope. Address it to "ARRL/DXCC, 225 Main St, Newington CT, 06111. Do not add a return address. Affix one first class stamp.
  • Arrange to meet your card checker.
  • When meeting the card checker, bring your QSO cards, the envelope and the two forms (cover and detail sheets).
  • The card checker will validate your paperwork, return your cards and mail the forms to ARRL
  • Processing applications can take from one to three months. Be patient.
