[OKDXA] Green Country Hamfest prizes

[Robert Redmon]

Richie,

I have not attended the Green Country Hamfest since I moved to Texas 
back in 2001, but I did attend for many, many years prior to that. I 
don't think I have ever gone to a hamfest because of any prize that was 
being offered. In fact, any more, I don't attend any hamfest that 
doesn't offer a good program and services (card checking, etc. ). If you 
do decide to offer a rig as a prize, I like the American manufacturer 
theme. Don't forget Flex.

73, Bob K5SM
