TOP VKFF HUNTER.
Each year the VKFF Team presents certificates to the Top 10 VKFF Hunters. 

Secondary calls held by amateurs are not included.  Only the amateur's primary callsign.

Initially the certificate was issued each year to the amateur who worked the most number of VKFF references during the year.  In 2020 the VKFF Team commenced issuing certificates to the Top 10 VKFF Hunters.


The current certificate features a New Holland Honeyeater (photo taken by VK5PAS).
