Do you you enjoy chasing QSO's with the 50 United States towards the various ARRL WAS awards? If
so, did you know that there are 2 WAS certificates and 30 different WAS
endorsement stickers which are awarded by the ARRL? Additionally, many
modes and bands can be combined for new endorsements, resulting in virtually an unlimited number of
awards for the avid state chaser. Tracking your QSO's for the different WAS
awards used to be a problem, but not any more with QuickWAS!
Below is an example of QuickWAS tracking a Mixed WAS award
for a user who is very active on many HF bands and modes:
Below is the Summary Report for the above Mixed WAS
map. Since the user has selected the option to apply QSO's across all
maps, for example when entering a 20 meter USB QSO with Alaska to the Mixed WAS map, this QSO
will also be applied to the 20 Meter WAS map, the Phone WAS map and to the USB WAS map.
All of the above QSO's were entered using the Mixed WAS map only, but since user
selected the option to apply QSO's to all applicable maps, the below Summary
Report (in two parts) reflects the user's standing for the 32 most
common WAS
certificates and endorsements:

After you have finished confirming all 50 states for an
award, you can then use QuickWAS to print out the 2 required forms needed
for a submission ~ the "ARRL WAS Application Form" and a completed
"WAS Record Sheet".
Please note that there are two versions of the program:
1. The Free version which can be used for record keeping and submission printing
for the Mixed WAS only.
2. The Paid version which adds 31 awards to the
QuickWAS menus.
