[HCRA] NEQP motivation

Thu May 3 21:31:43 EDT 2018

Don't forget that the HCRA changed it so the Single Operator using Low
power (150w and under) with the highest score will be awarded the Hampden
County plaque. That means no amps if you want to win that plaque.

Kudos to the HCRA board for doing that. It should hopefully encourage more
operators to get on.

Don't forget to put "Hampden County Radio Association" as your club in the
Cabrillo file. We have enough talent to beat CTRI.

Good luck to all.
