[KCDXC] May 2002 contests and other stuff

Tue, 30 Apr 2002 20:30:09 -0500

The club has sponsored the award for over 20 years! It's all band single op,
the top op,  the elite of the elite.

 It is very difficult to gain sponsorship for one of these  awards. You
can't just jump and choose what one we like. K0CS worked very hard  for
several years to get this award sponsorship. I recommend we continue right
where we are. Without the friendship of  N8BJQ, we would have nada.
