A big THANK YOU to the KH8SI team for activating a new one. Short of
already being on the island at the stroke of midnight (ala
Chesterfield), I can't think of a time when a DXpedition got to a new
one faster.
This is NOT a particularly difficult place to get to, and there are
something like 37 locals on the island, so once they can solve the
"natives are restless when generator runs at night" problem, I expect
another team will be back during a time of better propagation.
I am curious how many unique callsigns they were able to put into the
log. Staying on a couple of bands/modes for a long time (particular
20 and 17m SSB) should have helped this. The challenge chasers will
get another shot.
