[Elecraft] Newest WAS Award

[Larry Makoski W2LJ]

Fellow Elecrafters,

A tip o' the cap and a pat on the back to Jim Brooker WZ8K, on becoming 
the latest Ham to earn the much coveted Elecraft Worked All States 
Award.  Way to go, Jim - good job.  Jim will receive certificate number 
045 in the mail shortly.  Jim's callsign is now officially ensconced on 
the Elecraft Hall of Fame Webpage :

I noticed on the reflector earler today that K2 sn 54XX has been 
mentioned.  Gosh, over 5000 K2s out there and we've issued only 45 
Worked All States Awards?  Methinks you guys better get on the air 
more!  Hi!

For you newer Elecrafters out there who might not be aware of our Awards 
program ..... building your K1, K2, KX1 is only half the fun!  Can you 
imagine that?  I'll bet you thought that building was ALL the fun!  No 
way!  The other half is getting on the air with the fruits of your labor 
and communicating with your fellow Hams.  And doing so, in mass 
quantities, may garner you enough QSOs to earn a handsome (suitable for 
framing) certificate.  Check out awards criteria at:

Who knows?  You might just have enough QSOs in your log to qualify!
