[Michael Condon]

A bit more...
  I do think that CW only QRP recognitions are really good goals, as Bruce notes.
   
  Thanks Bruce..

I guess I was miss understood. I agree 100% with adding the CW only 
category. I have been suggesting this for several years. I understood the proposal 
was to only give certificates to the SSB only and CW only categories. The 
proposal stated:

issued for the >appropriate awards as are now issued.

I disagreed with this and would want to see plaques provided equally for all 
three categories. This assumes we can get adequate sponsors.

I agree, I have been suggesting this to Mike for months.

There is no doubt that adding the additional categories will increase 
participation. That is the point I was making.
