> Over the weekend I had a very pleasant surprise when I received a handsome
certificate from the Czech Radio Club for my 16th place finish (non-Czech
entries) in the OK-OM DX contest (3rd in the U.S.) last year. Also included
in the envelope was a glossy covered, eighteen page booklet containing all
the results, rules for the 2001 contest and other useful information. I
don't know how deep they went in awarding certificates, but it is a generous
gesture to send one to a 16th place finisher...

> I'm mentioning these items here on the contest reflector just to let other
U.S. hams know about this contest and how well it is organized. In fact,
after seeing repeated complaints about certificates and/or plaques from the
"big time" contest organizers being so late, it is refreshing to see how
timely the OK-OM Contest folks got their material out.
