A reminder to all operators (both activators and hunters) that at the heart of WWFF is trust.
Activators are reminded that they should only log completed QSOs, and a valid QSO requires a radio-to-radio contact to be made, without the use of repeaters or other aids.
Furthermore all equipment must be within the boundary of the reference. This equally applies for those claiming to be “resident” and claiming Park-To-Park.
Hunters are likewise reminded that they should only use callsigns that they are licenced to use… this includes (but is not limited to):
QSOs must not be made using callsigns that the operator is not entitled to use… this includes (but is not limited to):

in≈ Comments Off on Fake QSOs in Logs
The integrity of the WWFF program is based on trust. Trust that activators perform their operations in accordance with the Rules, without too much oversight.
Sometimes, however, that trust is misplaced… and where our attention is drawn to questionable behaviour, Team WWFF will take action, including retrospective invalidation of activities.
For some time, we have been monitoring the logs of a number of activators, where activities were being submitted with the same collection of chasers – but excluding any of the recognised Top Hunters, and with no evidence of the activation having taken place (no photos, no cluster spots etc).
The logs contained entries for Hunters that met the following criteria:
I have, this morning flagged as suspicious 63 Hunter Callsigns, representing over 13,000 QSOs, claimed by two Activators (including when operating using known Club callsigns)… a further number of Hunter Callsigns claimed by those Activators are being reviewed; a number of other Activators are also under investigation.
I do not believe any genuine Hunters will be impacted by this – but anyone who unexpectedly finds a red triangle icon on the QSOs tab, should contact me.
Note: a small number (less than 100 in total) of QSOs attributed to other Activators have also been flagged… the expectation is that these are simply busted callsigns that have been incorrectly logged.
Given that the only person that these Activators are cheating are themselves, I do not understand this behaviour.
Updated figures: 17,729 QSOs from 88 “hunters” for the 2 activating operators (using their own calls plus club stations).
