[Tim Duffy K3LR]

North Coast Contesters are happy to announce that "Tree" Tyree, N6TR will be
the featured speaker at the 20th Annual Dayton Contest Dinner to be held on
Saturday, May 19, 2012 in Dayton, Ohio. http://contestdinner.com

N6TR has an extensive and distinguished contesting resume that goes beyond
his many top ten finishes in domestic CW contests.  He was one of the
founders of the popular Stew Perry Topband Distance Challenge and ARRL Kids
Day operating events. Tree wrote the TRLOG contest logging software and he
is responsible for log checking packages that are used to adjudicate many of
the major radio contests.  He was the log checker for the WRTC-2006 event
and will be again in 2014. N6TR was honored as Amateur of the Year in 2003
by the Dayton Amateur Radio Association.

Tree recently operated as a single operator from KL7RA in the 2011
Sweepstakes Phone contest and as part of the KL7RA multi op team in
the CQ WW CW contest. This past August N6TR helped team USA win the
gold medal in the HF on-air contest from RG20CF as part of the Tenth
Friendship Radiosport Games in Khabarovsk, Russia. 

Outside of contests, Tree spends most of his time chasing new countries on
160 meters.
