Don’t Forget – You Can Work DXCC for W1SYE

Posted on by

If you ask John, K1JSM, for permission to be sure things are coordinated, you can operate as W1SYE from your home station and wrack up DXCC or WAS points for the club.

For example, a club member using the W1SYE call made contact with VP8SGI, South Georgia Island (AN-007), off the coast of Antarctica today (14.023.216/14.024.300 CW @ 20:37:34 UTC 2016/2/1).  Another was made the following day on 17 meters.

Remember to stay within your own operating privileges — in the example above the contact was in the Extra CW segment.
