[50mhz] 6m paper chasing

[wb2nuw at juno.com]

This might be of interest to 6m award-hunters... I just received the
"Worked All Nordic Countries" award from the Icelandic Radio Amateurs
group. It's a colorful certificate endorsed 50MHz SSB, for working 8 of
11 nordic countries, two of which are in zone 40.

Many countries offer awards that weren't really intended for VHF but can
be worked on 6; it's just the ticket for all those guys bored after
working DXCC, WAC, WAS etc. I can be cajoled into naming a few.

The most impressive thing about the Icelandic award was the turn-around
time: I sent it off 
6 July and received it 25 July. I don't get that kind of reponse out of
the ARRL!
