> About WWROF
> 
> The World Wide Radio Operators Foundation (WWROF) was created in 2009 by a
> group of radio operators who saw a need for an independent organization
> devoted to the skill and art of radio operating. We believe that amateur
> radio contests provide a means of testing operating skill and
> that worldwide contest sponsors can benefit from the support we can
> provide. WWROF owns, operates, and maintains the log-processing systems and
> awards programs for contests sponsored by CQ magazine and others. For more
> information visit www.wwrof.org
