| Radio Amateurs of Canada recognizes deserving Amateurs by appointments to the Canadian Amateur Radio Hall of Fame. The Constitution of the Hall specifies that the appointment as Member of the Hall is for “outstanding achievement and excellence of the highest degree, for serious and sustained service to Amateur Radio in Canada, or to Amateur Radio at large”.The Trustees of the Hall have interpreted the Constitution to mean that the person has performed significant service over many years to enhance the well-being of Amateur Radio. No single achievement would necessarily qualify an Amateur for the Hall of Fame, but a lifetime of service would be favourable. A list of previous Hall of Fame Members can be found on the CARHOF webpage.Nomination information and procedures:Nominations shall be submitted to the Board of Trustees using the Canadian Amateur Radio Hall of Fame Nomination Form which is available for download from the CARHOF webpage at: https://wp.rac.ca/carhof/1) The nomination should be kept confidential and known only to the nominator(s). 2) The person being nominated should not be made aware of the nomination nor be asked for his or her approval to be nominated.3) All nominations must include a biographical sketch or curriculum vitae and three references for the Member of the Hall.Nomination documents may be submitted by email or by regular mail, but the preferred method is by email in PDF format as these are much easier to process.
