World-Wide Award Contest

I think IHF members would be interested in the World Wide Award contest that is currently running all of January.  HF operators on all modes may have already seen the special event stations with callsigns ending in ‘WWA’, for example CR2WWA in the Azores.  The object of the ‘contest’ is to work these stations; you can work them once a day and in any mode (SSB, CW, FT8, FT4) etc.  The stations are typically super-sized club operations and they’re eager to work anyone that calls. At the end of January you can download your own award certificate.

No blurb is complete without an AI Overview:
The “World Wide Award” (WWA) in amateur radio is like collecting Easter eggs because both involve a treasure hunt for unique finds (radio contacts/locations vs. hidden eggs) across a wide area, driven by excitement, a desire to “collect” (countries/locations), and the thrill of discovery.
