The
Yasme Plaque |
The Yasme Trophy |
|
The Yasme Foundation offers a beautiful plaque to anyone who submits QSL cards showing contacts with 30 different callsigns of YASME officers, directors and/or operations. For proof of 60 contacts, a trophy in the shape of the sailboat "Yasme" is awarded. Eligible callsigns are defined as any combination of the following:
1) Callsigns of
Yasme officials under any of the various calls they hold or may have held, each being a single credit.
2) Call signs of operations designated
Yasme DXpeditions regardless of operator, such as FO0XX, XF4L, 3D2AM, etc. Generally, these are DXpeditions which include one or more
Yasme officials. Under certain circumstances, other DXpeditions may be designated Yasme expeditions, even if no
Yasme official participated.
3) The callsign of any station using a call issued to a
Yasme official, regardless of the operator.
Contacts made with
Yasme officials using callsigns issued to others do not count unless participation is a Yasme designated DXpedition. A list of eligible callsigns
can be found on the
DXpeditions page of this web site.
Award application should be made by letter to
the Awards Manager:
Randy Wright, W6CUA
18432 Milmar Blvd.
Castro Valley, CA 94546

The application must include your name, call, mailing address,
shipping address, e-mail
address, and a list of the stations with dates and bands, along with
the cards for verification. There is no charge for the Yasme
Awards, however, if you wish to make a donation towards their cost,
please feel free to do so with our thanks.
The awards are sent via
UPS or FedEx, so please be sure to provide a shipping address for
"ground delivery."
(NOTE: Ground delivery is made to a street
address, not to a PO Box.)
If you have a personal log record which shows contact with a station
in our DXpeditions
Callsign Directory, but you do not yet have a QSL card
confirming that contact, you may request cards from the QSL Manager.
Cards are only available if the DXpedition call is marked with an asterisk
(*).
Request QSL cards from:
The Yasme Foundation, PO Box 20578, Castro Valley, CA 94546
(not
from W6CUA, the Awards Manager).
