Yes, that is correct, Hank. This particular plaque is oriented towards
those with more sunlight AND the possibility of propagation to areas of
darkness with many operating stations.
Practically all, if not all, the other plaques are oriented to the folks
operating in darkness.
Merry Christmas from near the Mexican border where a tad less than 10 hours
of sun above the horizon exist right now.

kinda hard on folks in places like Nome, Alaska, where sunrise is at
12:04 p.m and sunset is 4 p.m.
Folks in Antarctica with perpetual sun have it made. :)
Up here we only have 9 hours of daylight (Grand Rapids, MI)

Hello Sam,
The plaque is available to every operator in the SPDC, ANYWHERE in the
WORLD. The only requirement is that all valid QSOs have to be made during
?sun above the horizon? at the operator?s location.
