  • Important Chapter Information for all

Information dated 15th Aug 2009

Following a recent chat via land line with John, G3RRM the Certificate manager of the Roman Invasion Chapter of 10/10 he has sadly decided that because of ill health and the passage of time, he no longer feels able to continue as Chapter Head/Certificate manager of the Roman Invasion Chapter...
After consulting with his son David, G4PDR who, with an ever increasing workload he too, can no longer continue with his duties of CM for the Milennium VIP chapter...
At the moment, John, still has all the records, on paper, but, he will be disposing of all records shortly..
John would like to thank all members of the two chapters but feels that now, whilst the band as poor as it is, is the time to close the Chapters and move on...
He has asked me to write to you explaning his reasons and wishes you all the best for the future...
I spoke with Cliff at the Convention and outlined the situation and reasons and I understand that he has started to remove Chapter info from various databases..
Many thanks.. On behalf of John and David, Dave G4KHF CM of the GBTEN Chapter...
  • WACS-WAFS-222 (German)

Information dated 24th May 2009

The GB-Ten Chapter of 10-10 International.
File ref: WACS-WAFS.222
Information wie das CAR Seal schneller gearbeitet werden kann......
Um das CAR Seal (Counties und Regions) zu erfüllen müssen 3 Stück von jedem Buchstaben gearbeitet werden, z.B. Buchstabe "A" 3 Stück, Buchstabe "B" 3 Stück und so weiter. Diese Buchstaben werden mit den WACS und WAFS Seals ausgegeben. Bitte die Buchstaben der beiden Seals nicht miteinander vertauschen.

Bitte beachten: Hat ein Seal 2 Buchstaben, z.B. WACS Seal# 100WA, so können beide Buchstaben eingesetzt werden. Das heißt sowohl der Buch- stabe "A" als auch der Buchstabe "B" können eingesetzt werden. Gleiches gilt auch für WAFS Seals. Haben sie z.B. WAFS Seal #101PL gesammelt, so kann auch hier der Buchstabe "P" und auch der Buchstabe "L" eingesetzt werden.

Sie benötigen jeweils 3 jedes Buchstabens (3x26) von beiden WACS und WAFS Seals um das CAR Programm zu vollenden. Ich habe einige Worksheets erhalten wo nur der erste Buchstabe benutzt wurde... Bitte beide Buchstaben benutzen für das CAR Programm ein- setzen.

Vielen Dank und gute Jagd.......

  • WACS-WAFS-222 (English)

Information dated 24th May 2009

The GBTEN Chapter of 10/10 International.
File ref: WACS-WAFS-CAR
Information on how to obtain your CAR seal
..(Quicker...............!)
In order to receive the CAR seal (Counties and Regions) you need to collect 3 of each of the letters issued with the WACs and WAFS seals...ie: 3 letter "A" 3 letter "B" and so on from both seals...Please do not mix the seals up!...
Please Note: Both seal letters are valid for this upgrade!...If you have collected, say WACS seal # 100WA both letters are valid..You would count the letters as one "W" and one "A"
The same with the WAFS, both letters are valid.. If you have collected WAFS seal #101PL then you have one letter P and one letter Lima..Both letters count... You only need 3 of each letter (3x26) from both the WACS and WAFS seals to complete the CAR Programme..
I have received a couple of worksheets where only the first letter has been counted.. Please count both letters for this upgrade Programme..
Many thanks and good hunting....

  • C.A.R. Seals Bonanza

Information Dated 18th Dec 2006

Would all GBTEN members please note that the Chapter has now issued 99 CAR (Counties and Regions) seals.. It therefore follows that once #101 is issued it will be possible to have collected 100 seals and to have had your own CAR seal used 100 times...( Cannot "collect" your own CAR seal!) Hi.. Wonder who will receive CAR seal #100 and then, when #101 has been issued, to have worked and had it used 100 times?? Quite a few members have already had their CAR seals used 100 times (see your last upgrade summary sheet for your exact number) Plans are being placed in motion for the next stage, once the first member hits 100 of each collected and used !!!
