Hall of Fame Award - This award may be given to any QCWA member who has made an outstanding contribution to amateur radio in general or to the communications community in matters affecting the general public. The contribution may be a single event or multiple events which has earned the recipient substantial favorable recognition at the national or international level. It is the most prestigious award given by QCWA. The requirements should not be relaxed in order to give it in any given year. To maintain the prestige associated with this award, as with all of the Honor Awards, it should be given only when it is truly deserved. The Hall of Fame was established by the Board September 6, 1979. Hall of Fame Award
