[Cwo] Awards

So long as Icom keeps sponsoring CWO, the cost of plaques and trophies are
both zero... including mailing cost.

I'm not sure anyone can beat AA3B even if he were LP.    ;-)

Let's face it, HP is more fun.   (smirk)   I'm not real hot on the idea for
trophies for LP/QRP, although it doesn't hurt.  I do think that regional
trophies/plaques would be very positive in terms of internationalizing CWO.
Of course, that would have a significant effect on Icoms' cost. It should
be discussed with Icom.
