FOR IMMEDITE RELEASE
FROM THE SANTA OFFICES, NORTH POLE, FINLAND

Dec.19,2016

WELCOMING SANTA TO THE XMAS SCENE, WITH MORE FIREPOWER TOWARDS NORTH
AMERICA!

With December 20th approaching, the Elves at OF9X have captured more than
20,000 QSOs but only some 1,200 to the U.S. Efforts are continuing towards
doubling that number, and more firepower is being added to the OF9X U.S.
script.

Santa will arrive on American soil, activating W1/OF9X from New Hampshire
(NH). When finally boarding his sleigh, he will say goodbye to America as
W7/OF9X from Tacoma, WA. Working Santa from these two U.S. locations adds
25 points each to the Santa Award program, as compensation for Mother
Nature’s poor propagation.

Please check QRZ.com for the latest details at www.qrz.com/db/of9x

Santa is ever grateful to Ray, W2RE, and Lee, WW2DX, at Remote Ham Radio
http://www.remotehamradio.com/ for supporting him on his world tour,
featuring the latest amateur radio remote technology.

Santa will start appearing also from his site starting this Wednesday.
He can talk to you and your children daily, starting at 20:00 UTC, via
video/audio streaming at:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChA...f6hJTXZBQ/live
Santa will personally invite the top scorers for a private conversation
with their children and grandchildren later this week. You can also ask
for an appointment after your first QSO with OF9X. Please see the appli-
cation format further below on this page.

The popular Elf-Hunt has put hundreds of DXers in arms, going for all
band slots on a variety of bands; see Clublog for the current scoring
situation https://secure.clublog.org/charts/?c˙9X#r. The global Top
Ten should be commended for their dedication to Santa Claus and for
honoring the statement of Margaret Thatcher during her term as the
United Kingdom’s Prime Minister: “A small elf resides in all of us”

particularly in these turbulent times!

The global Top Ten is as follows, while the continental leaders are
presented at the end of this page. Great job so far as the race is
