[PaQSO] 2018 Unsponsored Plaques

[Mark Schreiner]

Greetings!  Today it is raining in central PA, but tomorrow at this time I
will be (hopefully) packed up and heading out to set up at a portable QTH
to have fun for the weekend.  I can't believe PA QSO Party is almost here
already!

For the past several years I had helped Mike Coslo, N3LI, with the
plaques.  This year we have made the process for sponsoring a plaque easier
through our website:  paqso.org

Thank you to those individuals or groups/organizations that have as of
today sponsored 71.4% of the plaques for 2018!  Any unsponsored plaques
will default to a certificate instead.  We also require a 25 QSO minimum to
qualify for a plaque (that does not seem unreasonable, right?).

For the 2018 PA QSO Party I am still showing a few plaques that have not
yet been firmly committed.  There may be some minor changes made to those
that are already committed, so I'm leaving those off the list below for
now.

If any individual or group may be interested in sponsoring the following
plaques, please contact me directly:

*In-State (PA Only):*


   - Single-Op High Power - Phone
   - Single-Op QRP - Phone
   - County Line - Single-Op
   - County Line - Multi-Op


*USA (outside of PA):*


   - Multi-Op
   - Single-Op High Power

There may be one or two other opportunities as well, but for now I have had
no action on the above plaques.

Thanks and good luck to everyone with the Party this weekend,

Mark, NK8Q
