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) and other communications is a prime 
example of hams mentoring, teaching and training each other in the finest 
traditions of amateur radio.
