Also, watch QST Ham-Ads.
3. Gather all of the following:
   1. the completed order form;
   2. a check in the proper amount made out to the participating engraver of your choice (each engraver sets its own price for the badges, so make sure you remit the proper amount);

   4. proof of ARRL membership (membership certificate, card or current QST label).
4. Send the above to the badge engraver of your choice for processing.
