“Make nature your shack!”

WWFF, World Wide Flora and Fauna in Amateur Radio, is encouraging to leave your shack and go outside portable operating in protected nature parks all over the world.

More than 20.000 nature parks world wide are already registered in our WWFF Directory. Hunters and Activators can apply for colorful awards, globally and national.

The Russian part of WWFF is called the RFF — Russian Flora and Fauna… Read more…

“Russian Flora and Fauna” (RFF) and WWFF

01 June 2024

Colleagues, I regret to inform you that the “Russian Flora and Fauna”, RFF, is suspending its participation in the “international” WWFF program until at least a new, more sober and realistic WWFF committee is in place.

RFF-H award applications already approved in WWFF Logsearch will be completed, new RFF-H applications through WWFF will not be temporarily accepted.

The uploading of logs for activating RFF references to WWFF Logsearch is temporarily suspended. The logs for activation of RFF-references are accepted and processed exclusively within RFF.

Appropriate comments will be made on references to the WWFF in all publications on the RFF website.
Subsequently, the RFF website will be fundamentally rebuilt.

The Russian Flora and Fauna program exists and continues to operate, the actual RFF reference book is published only on the RFF website.
Awards for QSO with RFF will be issued directly by the RFF program itself.

Discrimination of Russian radio amateurs, “amendments” to Russian laws, Russophobia and inaction of the WWFF-Committee are unacceptable to us.

To paraphrase the phrase of our President:
“The destiny of Russia will be determined by ourselves only…” — The destiny of RFF will be determined by ourselves only.

For all changes, additions, news of RFF, except our site, follow:
– in the corresponding thread on the Russian amateur radio forum QRZ.RU;
– in RFF telegram-channel.

73! RN3ANT, Vitaly
RFF coordinator

In challenging weather and other conditions, we already had as many as 10 activated references by the beginning of April. That is why we are starting to publish the activity rating of the RFF program.

Congratulations to everyone who cares about the RFF program on the opening of the 2024 season!

Special thanks to very first activators:
– Ulyana RY0AAN for activation of RFF-0084, Krasnoyarskie Stolby National Park;
– Valery R7KFF (who would have doubted it!) for activation of RFF-0424, "Plachushchaya Skala" Habitat Preserve area!

I hope that this year we will show noticeably more impressive results than last year.

For my part, I can announce a significant addition to our reference directory coming in the near future.

There is not enough raw data for the 2024 rating yet, I will start it when there is enough data.

I wish everyone good health, great mood, excellent propagation and many new references in the individual scores.

73 & 44! Vit, RN3ANT

Due to both known objective and various subjective reasons, this year's activity is extremely low.

Only now we have accumulated some data to publish at least some activity rating of the RFF program.

“A” following the reference number means, that activation is accepted by RFF but not uploaded to WWFF LogSearch due to reference is national, valid for “Sanctuary Russia” award series, but not valid for global “WWFF” award series.

Sanctuary Russia

This short, 2.5 minute video, "Sanctuary Russia" was created to mark the 100th anniversary of Russian protected nature system and was shown on Priroda TV channel as part of the Year of Ecology and the Year of the Specially Protected Natural Territories (2017). Besides that, it is freely available on YouTube. But, most probably, people who are not “obsessed” with the Flora-Fauna theme, did not even see it at all.

We just decided to pay your attention to it. Probably, it would be good to create a nook on our website, where to place the most interesting, in our opinion, videos about nature, reserves, etc. Someone prefers to look for and watch such things on their own — no problems, everything is in open access. Someone will probably find it more convenient to watch passingly something here. And, perhaps, random watching of something here will prompt someone to look for and see something interesting on the big Internet without our meddling help.

Who we are?

“Outdoor QRP Activity Group” — a group of amateur radio operators which actively using low power outside the home. This is not a club having a charter, membership numbers and contributions. This is a group of people who are actively promote and develop QRP operation in the fields, forests and other outdoors. There are no financial interests here, it's not a business, but the only hobby for us.

What may give the participation in our event to you? Nice mood, good recreation in nature with transceiver, opportunity to get the original award and using of our logos on your QSL-cards.

***UPD: The group was created in 2016 on the initiative of Vyacheslav (Stan) UA3LMR for maintaining of the annual “Field Flowers” QRP marathon. The group membership was changing over time, and in 2018, with the involvement in the WWFF (World Wide Flora and Fauna) amateur radio program and attempts to pick up the abandoned Russian part — RFF (Russian Flora and Fauna), the marathons were discontinued. QRP is no longer a determining factor, and is conditioned only by the ability of radio amateurs to transport autonomous power supply for radio equipment.

Vyacheslav UA3LMR passed us away in the fall of 2023. The RFF program is maintained now by the only person — Vitaly (Vit) RN3ANT.
