The International Amateur Radio Union (IARU[1]) has bestowed its President's
Award on retired IARU Satellite Advisor Hans van de Groenendaal, ZS6AKV.
He was recognized for his many years of service to the IARU and the
contributions he has made to the association, especially in the area of
satellite frequency coordination. He will receive the award during a South
African Radio League function, to be announced.
Van de Groendaal had served as IARU Satellite Advisor from 1994 until earlier
this year. He established many of the Amateur Satellite frequency coordination
procedures and was a critical contributor to the IARU coordination process.
Hans Blondeel Timmerman, PB2T, was appointed in April to succeed van de
Groenendaal as IARU Satellite Advisor. - Thanks to the South African Radio
