Bill, This award is called the K1JT Award..named after K1JT Joe Taylor, Nobel winner for Physics. I know, I talked to Joe about it and got his permission. Thanks.Rick - W5RH From: BVARC [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill Stone via BVARC Sent: Monday, November 24, 2014 12:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [BVARC] BVARC VHF AWARD updated info Thanks to Camron the update on the 50 (MHz) and Above Award created by past Prez Kirk and BOD has been located. 2013 BOD approved this Award and 1st recipient was Thomas Krhan KT5TK @ 2014 Jan Banquet Suggestions for a major award to complement the Loop and Zepp award. The intent is to provide an award for outstanding service in club activities that involve VHF and UHF radio. The 50 and above name is a suggestion -- I couldn't come with anything cute: "In 2014 the 50 and Above Award was originated to recognize BVARC members for their efforts to promote operations on VHF and UHF bands These activities might include providing repeater availability for nets and other club activities, radio control and remote projects, balloon-launching and tracking, assistance for charitable bike rides and walks, net control operators, promoting radio sports, emergency management, and other related 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, if in the board's majority opinion, no nominee is selected. Under normal circumstances, other than the condition stated in the first sentence of this paragraph, the yearly recipient of the award, should there be one, must receive majority approval of the BVARC Board of Directors." 73 Bill WS5H No virus found in this message.
