1) Download and print out our Colony Log sheet (this is a fillable DPF), see below (Yours is OK too). Fill-in all applicable information. NOTE: this also applies to SWLs requesting a certificate. 2) A $5.00(US) donation** is requested (NOTE: this is an increase from previous years due to increased costs of materials- envelopes up 45% - and postage - we kept the previous cost as long as we could and hope that you understand and continue to participate), AND A RETURN SELF ADDRESSED LABEL for your certificate return envelope. This will cut down the time you get your certificate by two fold. Your address should be on the label! 3) Cash, check or MO is OK. Place my name on the check/MO this way: (pay to the order of) Ken Villone-Award Manager. (Banks are fussy!) 4) Send your return label, donation & log sheet to: Ken Villone-KU2US, PO.Box-185, Conesus NY. 14435-0185, USA. 5) We will provide the return envelope and postage. NO extra postage required for DX requests. 6) If you also want a QSL card for a contact with K2A/NY, include a full detail QSL card with your log sheet. I will send it with the certificate in the same envelope. NOTE: QSLs for any other states must be be sent to the QSL manager listed. |

ON-LINE
LOG FORM
|
| David Westbrook, KJ4IZW, has created an on-line program, which can be used to manually fill in the blanks, on a 13 Colonies Log Form or accept your ADIF file and, create a PDF file. That file can be printed and submitted for a certificate as above. |
| Last year over 800 callsigns used it; about 25%/75% for ADIF files vs web-based form for the QSO info. |
