Why North Holland, South Holland, North Brabant instead of Noord Holland, Zuid Holland, Noord Brabant.
Another remark : the province of Flevoland exisits as province since 01/01/1986 (before 1940 you even had to put /MM behind your call there )
So are you sure valid from 1900-01-01 is correct ?

Hi Meindert,

Source= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Provinces_ ... etherlands

First, I know nothing about the Netherlands and certainly not the language. The information I got was from the web and in English as I don't know anything else.

Thanks for the note.

I have decided to retain this award and if PB4FUN wants to edit it, he can do so at his leisure. :lol:

It was built with the best information I have available and is in English. 8-)

I checked some more details on the award, but there is no date restriction for the province of Flevoland.
But if it happens someone does have a QSL from before that time and needs Overijssel they could use some areas of Flevoland that were part of Overijssel before Flevoland was a province.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flevoland : This new land included the former islands of Urk and Schokland and it was included in the province of Overijssel.
Something else I found about that award might be interesting to add to the definition (no idea how this specific part should be implemented) :

The club-stations PI4VRZ/A and PI4CQP/A may be used as a joker or substitute for missing province.

Hi Meindert,

You can use these two stations as a joker, so you can assign any province you want.

Rules for the award (in Dutch) can be found here: http://www.vrza.nl/vrzacert.htm (there are no date limitations).
