[SEDXC] SEDXC 50th Anniversary and GQP

[John Laney]

Hello all:  I will be unable to attend the SEDXC meeting on Sept 20 due 
to church officer training at my church in Columbus.

I'd hope that the discussion of celebrating the 50th anniversary might 
include support by the SEDXC of the Ga QSO Party next April.

If SEDXC decides to award a certificate for working members during the 
golden anniversary year, maybe SEDXC members could sign /50 during GQP 
and anyone working a certain number of them (or maybe making a certain 
number of QSOs with SEDXC members signing /50 during the GQP) would 
receive a certificate.

PVRC is awarding a certificate for working their members (big membership 
list, because, once a member, always a member) this year during their 
60th anniversary year.   They may, but are not required to, sign /60.  I 
got my certificate for working 60 PVRC members this year this month and 
it came by e-mail.  To the extent that certficates are sent by e-mail, I 
guess there is absolutely no expense, but I don't know how to do that 
technologically.  I have received a number of certificates that way, so 
it can be done easily I suppose.  Howie, N4AF, does it for PVRC.  But, 
if you don't have a color printer, the certificates don't make good 
wallpaper.  PVRC gives you an option and they will mail their 
certificate to you.

Anyway, hope this suggestion will be considered when the subject comes 
up at the SEDXC meeting next week.  73, John, K4BAI.
