Hi to all,
The Hamaward Team (owners of the Hamaward.cloud award platform) are
pleased to announce a new WORLD WIDE AWARD 2024 chase that will take
place in the month of January 2024 celebrating the 150 year anniversary
of G. Marconi's birth. It will be a similar event to the WRTC AWARD
conducted in January 2023.
The WWA combines activity from special event stations around the world
with real-time award tracking for the chasers, creating excitement on CW
and SSB and Digital across the HF bands.
The WWA rules can be found at
<https://hamaward.cloud/public/world_wide_award_2024_rules.pdf>.
The January 2023 event numbers speak for themselves - 1.4 million QSOs
with 109.000 unique hunters in one month! We can tell you that being an
activator is a thrilling experience of radio with pileups every day.
Each activator may decide how much time they want to dedicate to the
award and enjoy radio at their convenience, from home or club station,
using possibly a Special Event Callsign.
The Hamaward Team is now looking for teams of *activators from every
country around the world*. If your country doesn't have a coordinator
yet (or invitation email), you can volunteer to lead an activation team.
You will request a "WWA" suffix special callsign (e.g. II1WWA) if
possible, or any other special callsign, then sign up your team of
stations and operators. We ask new country coordinators to be active at
least for 15 days during January 2024, with, at least 5 activators for
every callsign and the possibility to work at least in SSB and CW modes.
Just drop us an email to ik1hjs@gmail.com and the Hamaward Team will be
honored to include you and your activators in the list. There will be
only one coordinator per country and an unlimited number of activators
with not more than 10 Special event callsigns active (e.g., from 0 to 9
call number) per country. We will include your new special event call
and activators in the platform and show you how to be active.
Help us celebrate the 150th anniversary of the birth G. Marconi, the
father of radio!
73,
Carlo De Mari, IK1HJS
WWA Activation Leader for Hamaward Team (IW1FRU, IU1NSA, I4UFH, IV3ZXQ)
