Subject: [VHFcontesting] Mark Ammann, KM0A Awarded FFMA #4

Hi folks-

It is with pleasure that I announce that Mark Ammann, KMØA of Florissant, MO has been awarded the ARRL Fred Fish Memorial Award #4. Mark submitted the final batch of QSLs to ARRL late last week, and the cards have been approved by myself and ARRL Awards Branch Manager Bill Moore, NC1L.

Mark's last-needed grid, CM93, was provided courtesy of a Grid DXpedition put on by Barry, KS7DX and Dennis, K7BV just a few weeks ago. K7BV also provided Mark with two of his last-needed grids in early June: CN77 and CN78, during a Grid DXpedition to Washington.

Also included in Mark's last submission was a QSL from Pat Rose, W5OZI, recipient of FFMA #2, during his 1991 Grid DXpedition to DL88. It seems fitting that one FFMA recipient should help another earn their FFMA.

More information on the Fred Fish Memorial Award and a photo of Mark holding his last QSL at http://www.arrl.org/FFMA


Please join me in congratulating Mark on his achievement.

73,

Sean Kutzko, KX9X
