[EIDXA] EIDXA Logo HELP!

[Jim Spencer]

Dear EIDXAers,

We need help, especially from someone who has been a long time member.  Joe, K8OM, is trying to locate the original master artwork for the EIDXA logo.  Around 40 years ago at the creation of the EIDXA, Dave Jaksa, W0VX, took the task of getting a logo designed.  He located a professional graphic artist who created the design and gave us an artwork.  All I know is that they photographed the great circle map from my already old ARRL Antenna Book—back when they were a half inch thick!

Initially the art was used for design of our QSL, badge and membership certificate.  Over the years jackets, shirts, sweaters and more QSLs were made and who knows what else.

The problem now is to find that original artwork.  A year ago or so someone said that they had given them to me.  I do not recall that nor a lot of other things that happened 40 years ago!  I’ve searched all the likely  places I do not believe I have it.  Please look and see if any of you have that artwork or a hi-res scan of it.  There are a number of low-res scan around but Joe is looking for something that is high quality.

If you can find anything please let Joe or I know.  We will let everyone know the outcome.

Tnx es 73 es Gud DX,

Jim  W0SR
