The Order of the Key
The Order of the Key is the highest honor that can be conferred by BVARC. With
this award, we recognize the BVARC member who has made outstanding
contributions to the progress of the club. These contributions might take the
form of a long-term, consistent commitment to service, or might represent an
extremely high level of service for a shorter time. In any case, the award
represents exceptional service and commitment to the goals of BVARC. Any BVARC
member may make nominations for the Order of the Key. The nominations must be
made in writing, and should include a description of the nominee's
contributions to the club. Nominations must be submitted to any BVARC officer
or Board member not later than the December regular membership meeting.
The Dr. Bill Award
In 1988 BVARC initiated the presentation of the Dr. Bill Award, which was
originated by Keith and Eva Huge (KA5F and KA5CYZ) in honor of Dr. Bill
Ossenfort, NG5C, now a silent key, which was very active in the Volunteer
Examiner Program in the Houston area. This award may be presented each year to
the BVARC member recognized as the outstanding participant in the BVARC
Volunteer Examiner Program.
The Loop and Zepp Award
In 1989, the Loop and Zepp Award was originated to recognize BVARC members for
their efforts to promote operation on the high frequency (HF) bands. These
efforts may take the form of dedicated participation in any form or forms of HF
activities, the promotion of HF activities or the assistance in furthering HF
activities. There shall be no more than one award presented each year, unless
in any one given year the Board of Directors elects unanimously to award more
than one award. It is not mandatory that the award be made each year,
