Eligibility Requirements:If you hold a current amateur radio license, and you were licensed, as a ham, at least 25 years ago, you are eligible to join QCWA. It is not necessary for you to have been continuously licensed for twenty-five years. You can join QCWA on January 1st of the year you're eligible.

Check 'New Application' and include your Name, Call, Address, City, State/Provence/Country, Postal Code, E-mail and Telephone number. For the USA, please use the 9 Digit Zip.

Submit Proof of the year when you were first licensed. Send a copy of your first license, a qsl card or a log book entry. Be sure to enter your first call sign and first year licensed, this is critical if you don't have other proof of licensing. QCWA has past Callbooks, we can verify the year you were first listed. This method trails your actual licensed date but in most cases is close enough. If you don't qualify, we'll return your application and check.

You may choose to join a Local Chapter. View a list of Active Chapters or check our Local Chapter Web Pages listed by chapter number. Local Chapters participate in a wide variety of activities. Check with the contact person for more details and a local chapter application. You may belong to more than one Local Chapter but HQ only tracks one. Putting a chapter number on this application does not make you a member of that chapter. You still need to contact the person listed to get an application for that chapter.

If you don't live close to a local chapter, you have several options:

1. Sign up four friends and start your own Local Chapter (help is available from HQ) 2. Be a Member At Large (MAL), with no local chapter affiliation 3. Join the closest chapter anyway, contact that Chapter's Secretary for an application

When you join QCWA, you'll choose an initial term of membership (one, two, three years, or life) and pay dues accordingly. Thereafter, you will be notified by Headquarters when it's time to renew.

Be sure to include the Initial Registration Fee

Don't forget to check out the QCWA Merchandise we have available too!

Include the Name, Call and QCWA Number of the member who recruited you, leave blank if appropriate.

Mail the appropriate funds and the application to the address on the top of the form.
