The Yasme Foundation, a not-for-profit corporation organized to conduct scientific and educational projects related to amateur radio, has announced the first winners of their Yasme Excellence Awards.
Among the lucky recipients are Jukka Salomaa, OH2BUA and Antti Kantola, OH5TB. They will receive a shared award of 2 000 USD for conceiving, operating, and maintaining the DX Summit, the first widely-used web-based spotting network portal. “They created a tool that fundamentally changed the nature of HF operating, a true advancement of the radio art”, states the Foundation.
The other recipients are Joseph L. Arcure, Jr., W3HNK for his long service to DXers as a QSL manager; James Brooks, 9V1YC for DXpedition organization and videography; and Sheldon C. Shallon, W6EL for his work with propagation prediction software.
