Hello Warren, and other members of the OM @WW net, following
along, as well perhaps as some members of the YL @WW net too
on YahooGroups.com
Yes Warren, I guess you sort of left an image, as you admit
and thus a great reason to be careful, but on saying that,
I have never seen anyone rejected.

Long Dead? A dead issue? Thats news to me and participants,
who last year and this posted, as well emailed their results
...or told their tales on how they participated in the
Great Annual GNWB Rally.

Actually Ian G0TEZ mentioned to me via Skype on joining the
Island of Misfit Hams.

Already got an invite and looked into it, but really don't have
the time. As for Ian being blocked, it hasn't really stopped
his SP or SB getting to me., And then thats up to that Sysop
like all the rest in the world.

It has always been January of the year to start. I doubt there
has been an end. So I guess the bottomline is sometime in
December or before January OMs or YLs participating, in some
manner decide if they did or did not get any benefits and
drop it or carry on.

Gee I think it is a YL-OM @WW net program, only missing is how
many we've had..I think this year is going to be the 4th or 5th
year. I'll have to make it too echolink to ask participants.
Anyhow....keepon packetting..
