Over the last week, we hit a milestone of sorts in operating. We reached 500 total US-Counties worked and QSLed. We also hit the 1500 prefix mark. While I would like to apply for the CA-500 award, a good majority of the confirmed QSO's are via LOTW, and so far, CQ magazine is not accepting confirmed contacts from that system. While I have a WPX on the wall, the 1500 endorsement won't come soon. That's a lot of QSL cards. I worked out the math on the postage costs and I'd much rather save for a FT-950!
