PRESIDENT’S REPORT
August, 2019
USE OF THE TERM YL
Just a reminder. This is the YL System. It is a System, but was named YL in honor of our founder, K4ICA. It is important when referring to our group that we use the term YL SYSTEM. You do not have a YL number, you have a Sideband number, or a System number, or a YLISSB number. It gets confusing to some of our newer members and visitors when the incorrect terminology is used. So, please be careful, and remember, this is the YL SYSTEM…it is not a net, and you don’t have a YL number!
THANKS
The YL System thanks everyone that filled out and submitted our survey. Valuable information has been collected. It was greatly appreciated.
ASSISTANT INFORMATION OFFICER

WANT TO HOST A CONVENTION?
Our 2020 Convention is planned for Missouri, but the opportunity to host a Convention in your hometown in 2021 is available. If you are interested, drop me a note at kl7fqq@yahoo.com.
MONTHLY AWARDS
For the Summer Heat Award, 2019, contact 30 member stations who have a TFO number, or the Rigel Award. Each member contacted counts as only one contact.
CORNERSTONE AWARD
The Cornerstone Award is given to members for EXCEPTIONAL service rendered over an extended period of time. It honors those that have given to the System for a minimum of 3 years. You, as a member, may nominate anyone you feel deserves this award. So, put on your thinking caps, and decide who you think should receive our next Cornerstone Award. A list of those that have been recognized is page 62 of the Voice.
73’s Rose, KL7FQQ
