or via PayPal using my e-mail address, k4gmh at arrl.net, as the account
identifier.

You may sponsor a plaque for a competition category (within reason) not
defined above.  For example, the SOAB HP 7th W/K Call Area category has
been defined by the plaque sponsor.  Let me know your special category as
soon as possible to insure the final scores report will be sufficiently
refined to determine the plaque winner.

The commitment to sponsor a plaque, along with the funds, need to be
received by 28 February 2013.

Good luck and hope to work you in the Contest.

  73,
  Mike, K4GMH
