[ADXA] Congrats to Scott W5AAJ on finishing the Triple Play

[Jay Bromley]

Hi ADXA Gurus!

Check this out, I just happen to see the below by accident.  

 

About a month ago Scott W5AAJ said he had one more CW contact to go to
finish the ARRL Triple Play award.  This evening while helping another ham
get set up with LOTW and showing them the LOTW web site I noticed that Scott
made Triple Play number 2406.  My memory is so bad these days this could be
old news and I could have said congrats weeks ago?  With over 70% of the
hams  now on digital modes this is NOT so easy to get the 50 states on CW
and SSB!  Especially with solar conditions being so bad at times!

 

Anyway congratulations Scott and way to hang in there.  

 

That is a very nice award!  73 de jay/w5jay..

 

P.S. Please see below

 



 

 

 

Scott hang in there and the most important thing is to have fun!  Don't
forget to get in a few contests this fall.  That will speed things up for
you in more than one way, hi.

 

73 de jay..

Been on the CW airwaves, Jay. And spending more and more time with CW. Just
a slow process for me. But I am one CW QSL away from Triple Play and have
started down the road to CW DXCC with a dozen confirmed contacts :-). Trying
to spend more time drilling again. Want to be independent from software
aids. 

 

Hard starting at 64 yo, now 66. But I am progressing ever so slowly. 

 

I'll try to make the OWS meeting this Saturday but a lot going on with
family on the weekends. 

 

Hope to see you nonetheless,

 

Scott
