[VHFcontesting] [VHF] Mark Ammann, KM0A Awarded FFMA #4

[Kutzko, Sean, KX9X]

Obviously, Mark's call is KM0A. I tried adding a slashed zero to the
text of the email and it didn't fare so well.

Congratulations, Mark!

Hi folks-

It is with pleasure that I announce that Mark Ammann, KMXA 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.
