You are invited to join the club!
The Orca DX and Contest Club (Orca DXCC) was established in Fall 2010 to serve as a community open to all amateur radio operators primarily located in BC or the BC-Washington border region with an interest in DXing or contesting.

There are only a few membership requirements -- but we think they're important:

Requirement 1: You must be a licensed amateur radio operator Requirement 2: You have a strong interest in DXing or contesting Requirement 3: You pay the $24 annual membership fee for use of the logo and other privileges of membership
The club endorses the DX Code of Conduct, and we ask that members review the code and strive to uphold its call for courtesy and respect for other operators at all times. You should also read the club's aims and principles to ensure they fit with your own aims.

That's about it! If you want to join a group of very active amateur radio operators keen on working the next DXpedition or contest, welcome.
