Fan Mail #1: Hudson River Radio Relay 2021

After exceeding our event fund raising goal and making contact with 526 amateur radio operators around the world on June 12th in under four hours, I would like to honor a few who sent in physical mailed QSL cards this year so far by sharing them right here for all to see! 

For anyone who has sent in a QSL card or shared a log electronically via our website, everyone of those will receive a special commemorative certificate highlighting your achievements for this year's event.

Those that have donated to our Go Fund Me campaign, will receive printed certificates in the mail suitable for framing. If you missed your chance, please look for us next year.

Now that the logs are checked and verified, we will start processing things this week and adding details to the Hudson River Radio Relay website under a new tab at the top of the page called "2021 Results".
