[bars] WWA month long special event

[Tim - K1DC]

BARSians,

We are at the midpoint of this event and I thought I'd share a few stats:

     - 1.6M QSOs

     - Over 104K hams from 270 countries have participated

     - I've personally made over 5,600 contacts since Jan 1 as N1W.

There is still plenty of time to get involved! https://hamaward.cloud/wwa

73,
