QCWA Bulletin 2020-003 - Former QCWA President Harry Dannals, W2HD

Harry recently had a fall and is now in a Rehab facility. He could no 
doubt use some cheering up, especially since the current situation 
does not permit visitors. Please consider sending Harry a QSL card, 
along with a 'get well card', and a personal note to:

Harry Dannals
Allbemarle Health and Rehab
1540 Founders Pl.
Rm 203
Charlottesville, VA  22902-8933

Dannals served as QCWA President from 1989 to 1994, and was the only 
person to serve as President for both QCWA and ARRL. He was ARRL 
President from 1972 to 1982.

73,

Ken Oelke, VE6AFO
President, Quarter Century Wireless Association, Inc.

The QCWA Anniversary Awards can be issued on January 1st of the year a 
member is eligible to receive it.

Please endeavor to get theses awards to our members early in the year.? 
Don't wait until later in the year.
If they become a SK, you will regret it.? It happened to me when I was 
the Secretary of Chapter 8 a few years ago.

QCWA Bulletin 2020-006 - ARRL Frequency Measuring Test

Congratulations to QCWA member #26980 Steve Cerwin, WA5FRF for taking 
first place in the ARRL Frequency Measurement Test (FMT).

The results of the spring 2020 Frequency Measuring Test (FMT), 
conducted on April 24, have been posted. Coming in at the top of the 
list for stations entering readings of both the 40-meter and 80-meter 
frequencies was Steve Cerwin, WA5FRF. His average error rate was 
0.004902 parts per million (ppm).

The Top 10 looked like this, with average error rates in ppm. Thanks 
to Bill De Carle, VE2IQ for posting a ranked list of participants who 
submitted readings for both frequencies.

Hi Everybody,

During the COVID 19 Pandemic, everything seems to be changing, including 
the way we meet.

Thanks to Chapter 65, I have been experimenting with ways to get the 
needed information on the Chapter Meetings locations webpage.

The world seems obsessed with Zoom, as well they should be, it works.
When entering meeting info in the *Venue* field enter:
 ??? ??? ??? Zoom Meeting ID: 666 691 6987 Password: QCWA65
In the *Comments *field enter:
https://us04web.zoom.us/j/6666916987?pwd=RnBldEVQNUNzS2NWTXh4SWJqT0dHQT09

Of course, enter your data and not Chapter 65s.? Tnx Ron es 73

If your data gets truncated right let me know, I'll increase the field size.

Good Luck,
Stay Safe!

Bob, N0UF

QCWA Bulletin 2020-007 - Yasme Excellence Award

The following is from the Yasme Foundation Board.

QCWA congratulations QCWA member #26879 Joe 
Eisenberg, K?NEW as recipient of the Yasme Excellence Award.

This honor recognizes individuals and groups who, 
through their own service, creativity, effort, 
and dedication, have made a significant 
contribution to amateur radio. The Yasme 
Excellence Award is in the form of a cash grant 
and an individually engraved crystal globe. The 
Yasme Foundation recognized Eisenberg for "his 
contributions to amateur radio through his 
kit-building seminars, as seen at the Dayton 
Hamvention and other ham gatherings. He is also 
editor of the 'Kit-Building' column for CQ 
magazine. Joe exemplifies the 'give back' and 
'self-teaching' spirit of ham radio, especially 
in training youngsters," the Foundation said in 
granting the award. -- Thanks to Ward Silver, 
N0AX, President, The Yasme Foundation
