CONTEST HALL OF FAME

[IK0ZCW]

The CQ Contest Hall of Fame was established by "CQ" magazine in September 1986. The programme has maintained a consistent purpose to recognize individuals who have made significant contributions to
amateur radio contesting, both in support of others and in personal operating achievements. In addition, candidates are to be known for meaningful/measurable contributions to the hobby.
The Contest Hall of Fame is currently managed by the World Wide Radio Operators Foundation (WWROF) in memory of "CQ" publisher Dick Ross, K2MGA. Nominations for the CHOF are evaluated annually, with a firm deadline for applications of 1 March. Nominations may be made by individuals, clubs, or other organizations. The nominations are evaluated and voted on by the Directors of the major CQ contests (WW, WPX, 160, RTTY, VHF). The nomination process is detailed on https://contesthof.com/nomination-process/.
