Broadcast engineering consultant wins ARRL Technical Excellence Award

The recipient of the 2007 Doug DeMaw, W1FB, Technical Excellence Award
from the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) is John Stanley, K4ERO, of
Rising Fawn, Georgia, for his article 'Observing Selective Fading in
Real Time with Dream Software' published in the January/February 2007
issue of QEX.

Stanley was first licensed as KN4ERO more than 50 years ago, gradually
working his way up to Amateur Extra class. He graduated from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a degree in electrical
engineering in 1962 and did six years of graduate studies in theology
and foreign languages.

With Ruth, WB4LUA, his wife of 40 years, Stanley has visited 62
countries and operated from about a dozen of them while working as a
broadcast engineering consultant and educator. He has taught in
several universities and has worked for all of the major religious
broadcasters, but spent the majority of his time with HCJB in Quito,
Ecuador where he oversaw the use of a 24-element quad antenna for
broadcasting on the 21 MHz shortwave broadcast band.

While at HCJB, Stanley designed and built several transmitters and did
major work on the 20 kW unit presently used by HCJB for SSB and
Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) broadcasts.

Established in 1975 as the ARRL Technical Excellence Award, the name
was changed in 1997 to honor the late Doug DeMaw, W1FB, a former ARRL
Headquarters technical editor and well-known Amateur Radio author. The
award consists of an engraved 9 inch pewter cup.
