The 2026 World Wide Award (WWA) is in full swing!

The WWA is a month-long event involving hundreds of activator stations 
from the world over.  Hunters can contact the activators once per 
band/mode combination per day to gather points through the month.  The 
event is active on 80-10M with CW, SSB and digital (FTx, RTTY, PSK) 
modes active on these bands.  At any given moment several hundred 
activator stations are active (for example, as I type this there are 210 
stations on the air).

To gather points you only need to get in the log of the activator 
stations - a simple '59' exchange will do it.  You do not need to submit 
a log, the activator uploads the logs, in real time, to the event 
database.  In fact, you can see your status in real-time om the event 
website.

As I type this, there have been over 2 million QSOs logged from over 
100K hams, in 246 countries.

I am one of the MA stations activating N1W.  I'm happy to answer any 
questions about the event, or you can dig into the details at

73, and have fun with your radio!
