Randy said he will do $20 each and create a K2B with this year¡¯s QSL.
I don¡¯t know if he can also personalize with individual callsign.
?
So, send me $20 by July 30 if you want.? PO Box 596, Melfa VA 23410.
Pay to me; I will deposit and issue one check to Randy.
And/or feel free to order a regular 13 Colonies mug from Randy directly.
I will be on DXpedition to remote Tangier Island late July, but back August 1 and will send order.
?
Let me cover for the top five, who appear to be:
?
McKenzie????? 1,725 ??????????? KO4GLN
Chip??????????????? 1,590 ??????????? N2YO
Jerry?????????????? 1,534???????????? K8LF
Tim???????????????? 1,168???????????? AA4SS???????????
Lin?????????????????? 1,166???????????? K2LLC
?
I will also be sending out color certificates, and we received a generous donation of K2B mousepads, which all will receive.
K2B bling!

I have a thought, and I don't mind if it is summarily rejected.? Stilllllll....
13Colonies asks for $5 for a nice certificate. For some years I send the $5, and I am on a relatively restrictive fixed retirement income.? I don't think it's that much for an individual to fork over!? But as I read between the lines in these messages, a significant portion of those qualifying for the award do not in fact include $5 with their submissions. Why? Because it is explicitly stated that you don't have to send $5.
1. I know of no other organization that exempts submission of money for an award based on a claimed inability to pay. Indeed, in our case no reason be given.? Just don't submit the $5.? Try getting an award for free from ARRL, for example.
2. Even a high school kid on a lowly allowance can spring for $5 nowadays.? If a ham can pay the electric bill for his/her operations and owns a station, even with a dipole antenna, s/he can afford $5.? Most hams have rigs that cost plenty and they can afford $5. They see they don't have to pay and so don't.
3.? Somebody who wants QSLs can send a bunch of SASEs, as they would need to do under normal QSLing procedures.? That would costmuch more than $5.
My conclusion is that if somebody wants a fancy certificate then it costs $5.? No questions asked about where the $5 came from!!? Starting next year....

I agree.? I've been playing the event for at least 10 years, and never failed to send my contribution, get my sweep and the certificate.? The certificate goes into my shack notebook along with all the other "participation" certs.? Don't really need the QSL cards these days, or have space to store them.
