[amsat-bb] Jewelry Contest Winner

[Dave Guimont <dguimon1@xxxxxxxxxx>]

First, Leanore and I would like to thank all of the ~100 entrants and 
congratulate the winners.   And also to express our appreciation for the
gracious manner in the acceptance and interest shown by all symposium 
attendees regarding this fun event....

Anyone have any ideas for next year??   PLEASE let us know...You become 
immediately ineligible, of course, but if you can find two of the 
"beginnings" we'll duplicate it, one for you..

Next a huge "thank you" to Barry, va3bjd, and ALL of his crew for their 
flawless preparations.  The presentations were excellent, and for those 
that did not attend, the PROCEEDINGS should be in every library of 
satellite interested amateurs.  Add to that an excellent hotel, bargain 
prices and First Cabin hotel personnel in all departments.

Leanore always hands out her copy to someone in the NORTH SHORES AMATEUR 
RADIO CLUB in San Diego..

And now the winner, Herb, k6qxb, of Santa Rosa CA.  Second place is 
Douglas, ka2upw(an e-mail entry), and third place is Howard, g6lvb.

The "pendant" was found in an old 5 1/4" disk drive removed from an ancient 
PC, and the "calculated" resistance is 18.435817 ohms.  I have no equipment 
to measure the resistance that accurately, but extrapolation precluded a 
tie!  I may never find another one...

Leanore presented Martha with the "baby" based on a formula of her own 
design. Please do not e-mail me for the method!...Anyone not attending her 
presentation at the banquet email her, ka6ucd@amsat.org and not me!!





            73, Dave wb6llo@amsat.org
                    Disagree: I learn....
