St. Charles, MO
YASME FOUNDATION GRANT
The Board of Directors of The Yasme Foundation announces that it has
made the following grants at its recent board meeting.
Amateurs Radio Algeriens and Ethiopian Amateur Radio Society to attend
YOTA Summer Camp Croatia 2022
Foundation for Amateur Radio (FAR) and the ARRL Foundation Scholar-
ship Program
YASME FOUNDATION EXCELLENCE AWARD -- The Yasme Excellence Award is pre-
sented to individuals and groups who, through their own service, crea-
tivity, 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 latest recipients of the Yasme Excellence Award:
Parks On The Air (POTA) Team -- Since the program's inception, it has
grown enormously and now has more than 6500 "activators" who operate
from the parks and more than 20,000 "hunters" who work them. The core
team consists of W3AAX, WØZAP, W8TAM, N3VEM, PA0KGB, AB0O, WT8J, and
K4CAN. Next to DXCC and IOTA, POTA has become one of the most active
worldwide operating award programs. Even more important, though, is
that more hams are OTA (on the air), especially hams with modest sta-
tions or who cannot get OTA from home for whatever reason. POTA is
making it possible for them to have a great deal of fun, be active on
HF/VHF/satellites, and learn about radio.
Jan Stadman, DJ5AN/PA1TT -- In recognition of his efforts organizing
ham radio events. For many years, Jan organized the Dutch HF Convention
and the annual European DX Foundation meeting in Bad Bentheim Germany.
Jan also runs the EUDXF booth at Ham Radio in Friedrichshafen. Together
with other DX associations he invented and shaped the "DX Plaza" that
is now the central meeting point for DXers present in Friedrichshafen.
In 2017 Jan joined the organizing committee of the Dutch German Radio
Amateur Meeting DNAT and took over as committee chair in 2020, just
before COVID. The pandemic didn't stop him and even with the restric-
tion that were in place he was able to organize several events.
