Hi Rick,
That's the way I'm interpreting it as well. For me, my fees would add up to nearly $50 for my initial application.

Hi Jeff and the BB,
I just found both applications on the ARRL website. (the old form, date 2009, and the new form, date Jan. 2011) see following website:
http://www.arrl.org/files/file/Awards/VUCC%20App%202011.pdf
It looks like instead of a flat $10 fee, they now have gone to multiple fees for postage, the application and number of contacts. If I'm comprehending this correctly, if you apply for additional VUCC sticker, in the US and a ARRL member, and turn in 60 cards, it would cost you the following:
$1 postage, $7 application fee, and $.20 x 60 = $12 for a total of $20.00
Is this correct? I welcome all replies, if not.
73 all,

Hi all,
I was just looking over the VUCC award application and noticed that they now charge 20 cents per QSO. Is this fee only applicable if cards are sent to HQ for submission or in general even if you take them to a card checker? Thanks in advance!
