Young ham wins DXpedition trip: Fourteen-year-old Daniel Bradke, W2AU, of Niskayuna,
New York, will operate as part of the VP5X Contest Group for the CQ World Wide
CW contest November 29-30. Bradke was the winner of a competition sponsored by
VP5X (David Kopacz, KY1V). "Daniel's essay, operating skills and enthusiasm
have moved our contest team to select him to be our first annual VP5X Young Ham
Team Member," said an announcement on the VP5X Contest Group
Web site. Bradke has held an Amateur Extra class license since age 11 and can
handle CW at 30 WPM. He's a member of the
ARRL, the
Yankee Clipper Contest Club and
FISTS and
regularly operates during the ARRL Straight Key Night each New Year's Day
(UTC). The trip to Turks and Caicos will mark his first DXpedition.

I think this is a great program to involve young radio operators - GOOD JOB!.
BTW, The Yankee Clipper website is www.yccc.org not ycc.org.

This story was "lifted" verbatim from the ARRL website so I informed them as well.
