The closing date for nominations in 2012 has now passed.

An announcement will be posted in January 2013 for Hall Of Fame nominations that would be awarded at FDIM 2013. 

Nominate someone for the QRP-ARCI 'QRP Hall of Fame' now !

The closing date for nominations is Thursday 1st March 2012.

Tell us who you think deserves recognition !

It could be a designer, author, club member, contestor. The person does not necessarily have to be well known to the wider QRP community, but will certainly have served, supported and encouraged QRPers over a number of years.
  

You can submit either real mail or internet nominations but they must include the following information -

Name & Call of person nominated
Name & Call of person making the nomination.

A full description of why you think your nominee should be in the QRP Hall of Fame HoF. Remember the voting body may not know this person and you must convince us the person is worthy. Things such as "John Doe is a great guy and always helps out at the club" will guarantee they will not be admitted. Be specific in your recommendation and try to persuade us as to why your person should be in the HOF.
