The Commonwealth of Virginia will be celebrating the 400th anniversary of the founding during the year of 2007. The Vic Clark Chapter 91 of QCWA is joining in that celebration by offering an award to all licensed radio amateurs for completing 25 two-way contacts with stations located in Virginia that are made on the amateur radio bands during the year 2007.

This award, a colorful certificate 8 ½ by 11 inches in size, will be available to all amateurs satisfying the following requirements.

c. Certificates will be serially numbered and signed by the chapter president and treasurer.
d. Contacts may be made on any frequency authorized for amateur use. Contacts through a repeater will not be creditable.
e. Any mode that is legal on the frequency used will be acceptable.

I usually get off work at 7:00 PM EST and have my HF on during the drive home. I usually don't call CQ but do a lot of dial spinning and listening. I get off a little early tonight. I hope to be in the truck by 6:00 and my drive is 20 minutes. Let me know where you want to meet. I'm a proud Virginian and you be happy to help you on your way to this award.

I'll help you out! As I'm 13, I don't work and I'm homeschooled, so any time/frequency/date is go. 73, Brennen KI4PRK age 13
