NH8S new one DXCC # 331
A 16 member team is active from Swains Island IOTA OC-200 with the call NH8S
Due to its remoteness, Swains Island is considered a separate amateur radio entity.
The 2007 amateur radio dx pedition with the call sign N8S made more than 117.000 contacts worldwide. This set a new world record for an expedition using generator power and tents for living accommodations.
Unfortunatly i was not active by that time N8S was on air
5 years later thanks to NH8S dx pedition a new one DXCC # 331 is in my logbook !!
Thank you guys !!
Hope to catch you on many bands !!
