[CQ-Contest] Sweeps CW is coming up...

[Chris Plumblee]

Further to Gerry's note, the Florida Contest Group will be celebrating the
lives and contributions of the White family during the 2023 edition of SS
CW by activating all three of their calls in the contest.

Please look for W1CW, W1YL, and K4OJ to be active full-time in SS CW from
FCG members' stations.

You'll have to check your old logs (or copy what the ops are sending
on-air), as we'll be using the Whites' original check for each call.

The club intends to activate the Whites' calls periodically in CW contests
(of course) as a way to honor their contributions to the hobby and keep
their memory alive.

73/OJ/LN,
Chris Plumblee W4WF
President, FCG
