[CQ-Contest] CQ Magazine Hall of Fame

[David Siddall]

The period for submitting nominations for the CQ Magazine Contest Hall of

Fame is open. Individuals, clubs, and other organizations must

submit nominations in time for them to be received by March 1, 2020.

Each nomination should be clearly marked that it is for the Contest Hall of

Fame and detail the reasons and basis for the nomination.



The CQ Contest Hall of Fame was established in 1986 to recognize amateur

radio competitors who have made major contributions to contesting “above

and beyond the call of duty.”  Most successful candidates have had a

demonstrable record of giving back to amateur radio generally and to the

contesting community specifically.



Please note that nominations are not held over from year to year.  If you made

an unsuccessful nomination for 2019, you must resubmit the nomination for it

to be considered in 2020.  Update any information and add anything that you

think would help to make the case for your nominee.



The preferred submission method is by email to: W2VU at
cq-amateur-radio.com.

Be sure to make the subject line “Contest Hall of Fame”. Alternatively,

nominations can be mailed to: CQ Contest Hall of Fame, c/o CQ Magazine,

17 W. John St., Hicksville, NY 11801 USA.



Generally a maximum of two contesters are inducted each year.  The induction

ceremony will be held at the annual Saturday evening Contest Dinner at the

Dayton Hamvention®.  This year the dinner will be on May 16, 2020, at the

Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Dayton, Ohio.  Details of the dinner are posted

here: https://www.contestdinner.com/. Nominees and their nominator(s) will be
