W4HOD Wishes Everyone a Very Happy, Healthy 2010

Many, many thanks to club member Darrell, K9MUG for his tireless work on the CW portion of the Triple Play Award. A big thank you to KD4POJ in North Dakota, KK7UV in Montana,  and WW3DE in Delaware for their help with last minute qsos.

A very Merry Christmas from the Heart of Dixie Amateur Radio Society – W4HOD!

W4HOD is down to the final two contacts for the LOTW Triple Play Award. AA4YL contacted Maine tonight, which leaves Montana and North Dakota on SSB for the final two. Many thanks to Darrell, K9MUG for his wonderful efforts in the award hunt, we could not have done it without him.

UPDATE:  AA4YL worked North Dakota on December 23rd, a nice birthday present for her. One to go, where are you Montana?!
