Lawton Award Ceremony

Clifton Harper and the School Radio Club received an award for the
activities last fall during the November Sweeps Stakes, using the
callsign K5USA.
Available for presentation were L-R Marcos 10 years old, KF5LLG, Itzel, 12 years old, KF5JAZ and Clifton Harper KE5YZB.


Sixteen students organized and operated for about 8 hours from their local park using 100 watts of power and a home brew vertical wire antenna and were classified as a school during the contest.  Fortunately those young voices get through some of the largest pile-ups.

Thanks to Paul Goulet, KD5CYY for this information
