Joanna 3D2ZK and Bouvet DXpeditions!

Edited 5/26.  The ARRL has provided notice that these QSOs will not be counted towards DXCC.   Luckily I already had Fiji in my logbook.  We'll see how this pans out. http://3z9dx-busted.com/  

I've worked 3D2ZK Joanna "JK" Korczak twice now in Fiji Islands (40M and 30M) and learned of her opportunity to join the Polish Dxpedition to Bouvet Island.   

Bouvet is the most remote island in the world the the #2 most wanted DXCC (after North Korea).  With 30YJ also planned in 2023 these groups will present a very rare opportunity for ham radio operators to add Bouvet to their logs!

About:  Bouvet Island (Bouvetøya) is an uninhabited sub-Antarctic volcanic island that belongs to Norway. Discovered on 1 January, 1739, by Jean-Baptiste Charles Bouvet de Lozier, commander of the French ships Aigle and Marie, it was the first landmass spotted south of the 50th parallel south.

What a pileup!  I've never used the WSJT-Z Mod by SQ9FVE.
