[HCRA] a strange thing happened..

[Rick Lindquist, N1RL]

That's great to get the paper to actually run your FD publicity, but you
get the 100 points just for sending it to the media. The media don't
have to actually use it. You just have to demonstrate a bona fide effort
to generate publicity, that's all.

Remember, folks, this is not a contest. It's not about racking up
points. It's about demonstrating that you can operate "in the wild," so
to speak, and to have a great time--not to beat the club down the road.

Sorry I won't be there, but look for me QRP DL/N1RL.

73, Rick, N1RL

Kewl!

We've already got 100 points and haven't even turned on a transmitter
yet!
This is the non-contest part of the FD scoring - lots of points, no
signals
but good PR.

Looks like your PR efforts are working fine Jim. Hopefully the article
will
attract a few of the 'curious' people and we get a chance to show off
our
stuff.

Now we need to get a copy of the article. Which paper was it in - Daily
News?

'73...

Jim

Jim,

I didn't notice that. Looks like we got our bonus points for press
coverage.
