Here's an interesting, but short-term, lmited lifetime idea for you folks
who want to promote code learning.

The Lehigh Valley Amateur Radio Club has ammassed $100.00 to present as an
award to the last *club member* to pass Element 1 for an upgrade at a
*club-sponsored* ARRL VE session before the new rules come into effect and
the Element 1 test moves out of the rule book and into the history books.

(Actually, it was announced last week at this month's club meeting that
"several benefactors" had contributed a total of $70.00 to the cause and I
just *had* to immediately kick in an additional $30.00 on behalf of NCI to
make it an even hundred :-)

As I said, this is a short-term (limited lifetime) opportunity. If you want
to *continue* to promote code learning, great, but you'll have to come up
with a new idea ...

That might be a problem. The Gulag system is all they know...
