The 31st July is designated as World Ranger Day, to commemorate park rangers killed or injured in the line of duty, and celebrate the work they do protecting the worlds natural environments.
Paul VK5PAS offered an award for activating a VKFF park on World Ranger Day. As happened to be on leave at the time activating parks in Northern NSW this was easy for me to accomplish...
Ended up activating 2 parks
VKFF-0385 New England National Park - 17 QSOs including 6 P2Ps
VKFF-0406 Oxley Wild Rivers National Park - 18 QSOs including 7 P2Ps
At New England National Park I actually ended up talking to a couple of park rangers. They stopped to chat when seeing me on the radio, and we had a chat about the use of HF, VHF and UHF and compared to their own radios. Friendly guys,.
Award received from VK5PAS, thanks Paul
