The first update for September has just been released, featuring:

  • A number of new awards:
    • Next step in the GxFF awards for both Activators and Hunters (level 77)
    • Next step in the P2P award (level 444)
    • PRA Greenfest Award (on the Special Awards tab)
  • The support of the new digital sub-modes: FT8 and JT65C
  • On the DX Entities page, allow the selection of VEFF to show the appropriate subset of States/Territories
  • Some minor tweaks and fixes.

Note

I am more than happy to add new awards (both National and Special) but please:

  1. Discuss the qualification with me before hand – what may appear a simple qualification may not be so easy to code!
  2. Give me more than a couple of day’s notice!

Development of Logsearch has to fit around family and work commitments!

New features in the 2.9 version :

  • Integrated log upload to LoTW (ARRL Logbook of The World) using TQSL.
  • QSL Messages valid for the entire log can now be entered in the header section of the log (for eQSL etc.).
  • New digital modes FT8 and T10 added. All modes synchronized with the ADIF specification.

Did you know ? #01 Reference Statistics

Did you know you can check the statistics (first activation date, last activation date, amount of QSO’s made etc) for every WWFF reference ?

You can check this in two different ways :

  1. Go to the WWFF MAP page  (Directory > WWFFMAPS) , select the country you like to see, click in the pop-up box on “Activations, QSOs”

2. Go to the STATISTICS page (Directory > STATISTICS). Here you can fine tune by selecting country and eventually the year.

 

Asking for your assistance

Hello to all National co-ordinators and Contintental representatives,

When adding new references to the on-line WWFF Directory, could you please also take the time to add the latitude and longitude of the reference you are adding.

The reason for this request is that Alena OK2APY is doing some magnificent work behind the scenes with mapping WWFF references.  However for Alena to complete her mapping work, the latitude and longitude of the reference is required.

By National co-ordinators and Contintental reps doing this little piece of extra research when data entering, a lot of extra work by Alena herself, is removed.

New references will no longer be approved until the latitude and longitude information has been provided.

The WWFF mapping project can be viewed at…..

Thankyou very much in anticipation.

73 and ’44’,

Paul VK5PAS
