Hello, Ed! de WV4AM
I just wanted to drop by and ask if you could put something in the newsletter for me.
I’m currently 3D printing custom callsign plaques for $10.
Could you put that in the newsletter? I would want something simple like:
“Jake is currently selling custom multi-colored callsign plaques for $10 each. If you’re interested, email him at [email protected].”
That’d be great if you could do that for me.
Thank you!
-Jake,WV4AM
