Ain't there no ragchewin' goin' on?

Larry Makoski W2LJ
There has been a drought in the number of Elecraft Ragchewer's Awards
that have been coming in.  It seems that not many of you are getting on
the air with your KX1s, K1s, K2s and K2/100s and spending some time
heating up the ionosphere !

So, in an effort to increase activity and at the same time celebrate
Christmas; I have an offer you can't refuse!  Have a nice Holiday
ragchew using your Elecraft rig and make it last at least 30 minutes.  
Any ragchew submitted from now until January 6th (the Twelfth day of
Christmas) will earn you your Elecraft Ragchewer's Award for FREE!  The
normal $2.00 fee will be waived in honor of the Holiday Season !

Full details can be found at - http://www.qsl.net/w2lj/index_page_9.html

To all - Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I had a recent QSO (14 Nov) that went 70 minutes. It's easy when the other
op has lots of common interests. A K2 owner, no less, but running his Omni
that night for some reason I don't remember. We both soar, fly instruments,
play radio, and several other things in common I don't remember (I guess
that Old Timers disease is catching up to me - this was only a month ago).
My log shows 21:37 to 22:47. Don's card (K5KW) shows only 22:00. So, I guess
we qualify (although Don was on his Omni VI+ that evening).

Anyhow, the QSL card went out a while ago and I didn't think to copy it.
There's ragchewin' going on, just not getting sent to you!

Ahhhhhhh,  Glad I waited...Had a great 40 minute QSO with W7QC
 on 9/27 right after the award was announced, but couldn't come up
with the $2.00. Never sent it in...
So it's on the way, FedX Overnight, hand deliver before 8AM. Gonna
save that $2.00.. Wait, FedX charges were $37.00.
Hmmmm.  Oh well,  2 fish swim into a concrete wall.
One turned to the other and exclaimed "Dam!"........
Merry Christmas,  Art  W6KY    K1-4
