QRP ARCI Hall of Shame?
I was very sad to lean that at this years Dayton Hamfest and FDIM the Grand Poobahs of the QRP-ARCI (also known as the colonial branch of the G-QRP Club) inducted NO ONE into the QRP Hall of Fame. I had personally nominated Oleg, RV3GM, who has practically single handedly promoted QRP in Russia, founded the Russian QRP Club, has provided numerous kits for fellow Russian Hams (and others) and writes a column for the QRP ARCI's own QRP Quarterly. Could the folks at QRP ARCI be so small and petty that he was not selected because he was nominated by one who is on their sh*t list?
In addition, John Shannon K3WWP, who has been a voice for QRP CW with simple antennas for YEARS, writes a column in WORLDRADIO, etc., was also nominated...and rejected.
Finally Chuck W5USJ was nominated. He has pushed the milliwatt operation side of QRP, and has been an Elmer to many. Again, rejected by QRP-ARCI!
This is throughly disgusting! QRP-ARCI has descended to a new low.
