KFF Marathon Challenge – 2025

The KFF Marathon Challenge, a yearlong activity wherein we will recognize the achievers who work, or activate, the most KFF References during the calendar year, is designed to promote WWFF activity worldwide and to recognize those that distinguish themselves by working, or activating, the most KFF References during year. The KFF Marathon Challenge wants to continuously draw attention to the importance of protecting nature, flora and fauna. And to encourage hams to Make Nature Your Shack. 

Good luck to hunters and activators during these great propagation conditions!

Standings

Lots of activity during January with big jumps in the numbers. We also have two new leaders, Laurent W0MM making a big jump into the NA Hunter category, and Gene NT2A doing the same in the Activator category. We also have some calls that have never made the Top 5 and Top 10 rankings before. Will anyone challenge Gerard F1BLL for his top spot? He has been so outstanding at holding his top spot in what seems forever! Congratulations to all!
