2025 Kentucky Amateur of the Year
Each year, the Greater Louisville Hamfest recognizes a licensed ham operator in Kentucky as the KY Amateur of the Year. Keep an eye out and nominate someone who is a hams ham - that guy or gal who is active on the air, always lends a helping hand and balances hamming with the rest of life. Got someone in mind? Sing their praises in an email to KYAmateuroftheYear@gmail.com.​ For more information, go to our KY Ham of the Year page. -Buddy Sohl KC4WQ

GLH-2025 Planning Update
The Greater Louisville Hamfest Association has been hard at work in planning this year's hamfest. In late May, we will be announcing this year's interesting Forums and exciting Major Prizes. We will also have the QLF contest once again this year, so get your left foot prepared to send some Morse code. We will also be presenting the Kentucky Amateur of the Year award to a local ham operator who has been nominated by other hams for this recognition.
We heard your comments about the higher cost of Extra Prize Tickets, so we now have the tickets re-priced back to to $1 each. Unfortunately, due to Kentucky law, we can no longer offer the 6 for $5 discount on these tickets.
All tickets are now on sale at the GLH Store and registration is open for inside and outside spaces. For more details, click the "Tickets & Spaces" tab in our menu.
