Two organizations recently honored several hams for their contributions to the hobby and to radio in general.
The Radio Club of America recognized Dr. Nathan Cohen, W1YW, inventor
of the fractal antenna, for his work in engineering and manufacturing of radio
equipment; David Bart, KB9YPD, for helping preserve the history of radio and
electronic communications; Tim Duffy, K3LR, and Gerry Agliata, W2GLA, for their
work with the club, and CQ contributor
Carole Perry, WB2MGP, for her contributions as a woman in wireless
communications. Perry is also RCA's Youth Activities Chair (see her article in
the upcoming January issue of CQ).
Separately, Newsline reports that the YASME
Foundation granted its 2015 Excellence Award to the development team
responsible for the N1MM contest logging program: Tom Wagner, N1MM; Rick
Ellison, N2AMG; Steve London, N2IC, and others.
