For the *ARRL 160-Meter Contest* <http://www.arrl.org/160-meter> taking

behalf of the ARRL Board of Directors — will award a new “John 
Devoldere, ON4UN, Memorial Plaque” each year to the Single-Operator, 
High-Power (SOHP) winner. A giant in the field of low-band DXing and 
contesting, Devoldere *died*

November 9.

An ARRL Life member, Devoldere may be best known outside of his 
160-meter activity as the author of the popular /ON4UN’s/ /Low-Band 
DXing/, published by ARRL, as well as other books, including /Ethics and 
Operating Procedures for the Radio Amateur/ (coauthored with Mark 
Demeuleneere, ON4WW).

The initial award will be made for the 2020 edition of the ARRL 
160-Meter Contest. This is a CW-only event.
