[amsat-bb] 7th Jewelry Contest

[Dave Guimont <dguimon1@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Leanore and I would like to thank all of the entrants in this year's 
contest.  The spirit in which it is accepted is magnificent, and we 
sincerely hope it is as much fun for you as it is for us.  We were 
fortunate to have the convention here in San Diego, and of course we look 
forward to next year in Maine!

With the latter in mind, any and all suggestions for the Eighth Contest in 
Maine will be accepted gratefully!

The total number of entries, 80, came by amateur satellites, e-mail, 
telephone, with most of them hand delivered at the convention or ham clubs 
in the area.  The winner, Eddie Pettis,  N5JGK, came within .0018261 mHz of 
the "correct" frequency of 435.8531739!

Duane Naugle,  KO6BT was second, and Anthony Monteiro, AA2TX, came in third.

No, none of them made contact using the antenna, but  three attending the 
convention did.

Tnx agn.

           Disagree; I learn.
