[CQ-Contest] [RTTY] NAQP Plaque

[k3mm@comcast.net]

Heh heh... thanks Don!

I'm spending most of my time and money road racing a Spec Miata this year, so I wont be on this weekend.  I'm hoping for my first racing trophy this weekend if I stay out of trouble :)

You guys have fun and see you in the Fall!
