Contact stations with prefixes/suffixes that match the 50 U.S. Postal 2-Letter State Abbreviations.
Either the prefix or suffix can be used but not a combination of both. Letters must be next to each other in proper order reading left to right.
The station worked does not need to be in the state for which their call will be used, but stations (any station) may only be used once.
EXAMPLES:
1: WA5CAR MAY BE USED FOR EITHER WA, CA, or AR but not all three.
2: N9CAR MAY BE USED FOR EITHER CA or AR but not NC
After the primary award has been earned, you may then receive the 100 points enhancement. Stations worked in the state used will count 3 points, and stations out of the state used will count 1 point. Each state may be used only once. Stations used in the primary award may be used for the 100 points enhancement. The letters for 100 points enhancement do not need to be next to each other as they do in the primary award but must be read from left to right. (Example: WA9APK. You may use AK for Alaska, but not PA for Pennsylvania.)
