Is this a new thing?

 A good friend of mine, John Wyatt W2VTV posted this on Facebook.


He received a certificate from the ARRL for 25 years of membership. Have any of you out there gotten something like this from the ARRL?

Let's see ....... I've been a member sine 1979 - that's 43 years.  I've been a VE Examiner since 1994 - that's 28 years. I became a Life Member as N2ELW back in the 80s and received the associated plaque. When I changed my call to W2LJ in 2000, I had to pay for a new one. 

I guess being a Life Member they figure they've lost money on me over they years - so no certificates marking the milestone years. Oh well, they would have looked nice on the shack wall.

  1. Yes, I got one not for years, but I have those as well, but for the work I and two others have done to keep the Delaware QSO Party going for years.
    Glad your doing better.
