Since Jon didn't mention it, I'd like to remind everyone that NLRS took 4th place in this years' SBMS contest... and Jon, as President, has a very nice plaque to prove it !

I was privileged to receive the award on behalf of NLRS at Microwave Update in October.  One of the SBMS officers commented that they were worried NLRS would take 1st place away from them in the comming years.  

I think it would be nice if we made their nightmare come true !! 

A few new players, a few new bands, (and NO SNOW on the Contest weekend!) and we could do it !
