via Amateur Radio Daily: Bonus Station WC5WC to Replace W2C for Football Special Event

Chasers pursuing certificates for the 16-city 2026 North American Football Championship Special Event have until Friday the 3rd of July to work the NY/NJ station, W2C.

After that date, W2C will no longer be part of the multi-city event and contacts beginning on the 4th of July will not receive credit toward any awards. Another individual or group not associated with wc2026ses.org has reserved W2C for an independent World Cup SES from July 4-19. Contacts with W2C during that time are not expected to receive credit toward our Certificate program. Questions regarding W2C operations after July 3rd at 2359z should be directed to the new callsign holder WA2VUY.
