Ed Menasian, N8LPQ, Toledo, Ohio, is the recipient of the 2024 ARRL Technical
Service Award. He was presented the award plaque and motion certificate by ARRL
Great Lakes Division Director Scott Yonally, N8SY, at a ceremony held November
23 at the Toledo Emergency Management Agency.

The ARRL Technical Service Award is given annually to one or more licensed
radio amateurs whose service to the amateur community and/or society at large
is of the most exemplary nature within the framework of amateur radio technical
activities.

The award motion certificate presented to Menasian noted he exemplifies the
spirit of the award through creating ways to learn and share technical
information, including his weekly breakfast meetings and his licensing classes
that train both prospective and current hams.



"It was a great day for me," said Director Yonally. "A room full of his
students each got up and did a short testimonial on how Ed has helped them in
not only getting licensed, but also getting on the air, and how he encourages
them to upgrade as well. What a day it was." Yonally added, " This is what
being a member of ARRL is all about."



Menasian has been licensed since 1981, holds a General Class license and has
been an ARRL member for 13 years.
