On Sunday January 8th OZFF Group would like to invite all WWFF Hunters and OZFF Activators to OZFF New Years Hunt 2017.
The Event starts at 12:00 UTC and ends 14:00 UTC.
Activators have to stay in an OZFF area and will get 1 point for every QSO. Each Hunter-station may be worked one time pr. Band / Mode.
Hunters who have worked 3 different OZFF areas or more can apply for an special Award at www.ozff.dk
We hope / believe that 5-6 stations, perhaps more, will be on the air from different OZFF areas. Deadline for registration is at January 1st. Before the start a list of active stations / OZFF areas will be public.
This event is mainly to have some fun, but also to promote Flora Fauna in Denmark. We hope to have 1-2 “First time” Activators on the air.
If this become a succes, We will do it soon again
Merry X-mas and HNY 2017 for everybody
See You on the air January 8th

I am pleased to announce that we have changed the name of the “USACFF” award to the “KFF-States” award. The name was changed because we wanted to have a “worked all states” type of award, but of course, the United States is not its own continent, and part of North America.
We are only opening up the first wave of 7 states worked first so that stations can claim the first award, and we will be opening up more states in the coming weeks in these waves: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42 and finally, all 50 states. To claim the 7 state award, please visit Logsearch after you have registered, and click on the appropriate button to apply.
If you already have been granted a “USACFF” award, please go back to apply for the new KFF-States version. If you wish to retain your original serial (e.g. 001), I can issue it as (001P) to acknowledge the prototype.
Thanks, 73 and 44 … Jason – W3AAX

Hi WWFF hunters,
We successfully installed the antennas 1000hrs UTC on the 10th and started dxing. The band condition was not good at all but because of the location the hf bands were very noisy free compared to our homes in the town so we were managed to work 650+ stations on 10 – 40M. although we had 80M and 160M antennas up we could not make any contact. As you can see from the photos it was mostly not dxing but having a good time with fellow hams!!
On the 12th night there was a mini cyclone in the area and there was a power cut due to a fallen tree, lo tof time was lost. We did not take a generator as generators are not allowed in the forest reserve.

Over the past year (or so), I’ve completely re-written WWFF Logsearch as a WordPress plugin, to integrate within this main WWFF.CO website. This has mostly been completed… however, the ToDo list (for completion, but especially for new features) remains quite long and I just do not have much spare time…
So I am looking for a suitable competent person (or persons) to help with further Logsearch development – or maybe to take it over completely?!
Skills required are:
Note: this is not something for a “hobby hacker”!
If interested, please post a reply here (if logged in), contact me via the Contact form, or email me (see QRZ.com). Please provide details of your skills, and how you can help!
For the avoidance of any doubt, Logsearch has been donated to WWFF by me (Andrew M0YMA), and is available to anyone else (as is, with no warranties or guarantees), under a GPL2 licence.
