Operator Awards

SK - Paul W. Copeland, K4KCS, one of our 13 Colonies operators from North Carolina, has made his final QSO. Starting with 2012's special event, an award plaque will be instituted, for Colony Operators only, in his memory. |
|
1.) Top Operator HF-High Power-over 250 watts to legal limit. 2.) Top Operator HF-Low Power-250 watts and below. 3.) Top Operator-Satellite. |
 |
| The award will be affixed to a black-real hardwood plaque 10" x 13" with a clear lucite facing and has beveled edges. |
| The award is annual each year with slight variations for contrast. It will be issued on July 31st, and mailed out to the recipients. The image above shows only the certificate that will go on the plaque. I wish I could give everyone this plaque, it is well deserved. It serves as an incentive. I know we will make Paul proud. Believe me, it will be something that you folks will have no reservation placing on your shack wall. This award is for individual efforts only. The only exemption is OM/XYL teams because they operate separately as one station. Club members are eligible, individually. |
| Paul was a God fearing man, Patriotic, a serious ham radio enthusiast and a joy to know/talk to. This is the least we can do. His last effort was working the 2011 event to its completion. |
| Thanks - Ken KU2US |
