It makes me wonder if the ARRL would be liable is someone was seriously injured or killed by trying to put this land mass on the air. A place where the only shelter you can put up is an umbrella should be deleted. Maybe there should be a minimum land mass requirement in the dxcc rules? 73 Jay

John, Exactly! I am in 100% agreement with you. A few Holy Grails scattered about the world is a good thing. It won't take long for someone or some group to come along and step up to the challenge! Money holds most back, but it is MY personal opinion, that if the monetary hurdle were not
