THE YASME FOUNDATION EXCELLENCE AWARDS

The Yasme Excellence Award is presented to individuals who, through their own service, creativity, effort and dedication, have made a significant contribution to amateur radio.  The contribution may be in recognition of technical, operating or organizational achievement, as all three are necessary for amateur radio to grow and prosper.  The Yasme Excellence Award is in the form of a cash grant and an individually-engraved crystal globe.


The Board of Directors of The Yasme Foundation is pleased to announce the award of the Yasme Excellence Award to the following individuals:



         Tim Duffy, K3LR: While Tim is involved in many facets of amateur radio, the Yasme Excellence Award is made in recognition of his adaptation and development of the Contest University (CTU), now in its tenth year.  CTU has not only reached hundreds of amateurs around the world, but it has also inspired others to create their own CTU-format training programs in other fields. Tim’s dedication to CTU is in the finest traditions of amateur radio’s self-teaching and training.

         Carole Perry, WB2MGP:  The Yasme Excellence Award is made in recognition of Carole’s many years of contributions to teaching and mentoring youth interested in amateur radio and her efforts in organizing and promoting the interests of young operators.  This youth-oriented work becomes more and more important to amateur radio with every passing year. Carole’s dedication to this work, including through the Radio Club of America, is in the finest traditions of amateur radio’s self-teaching and training.

         Tom Rauch, W8JI:  The Yasme Excellence Award is made in recognition of Tom’s many contributions to the technical advancement of the amateur service.  Tom’s willingness to provide education and direction to amateurs through his website (www.w8ji.com<http://www.w8ji.com>) and other communications is a prime example of hams mentoring, teaching and training each other in the finest traditions of amateur radio.
