My apologies; JQ1NGT/JD1 is not from Minami-torishima but OGASAWARA isl.
According to the "Five Nine" DX magazine by JA1ELY that I rcved today;
"JQ1NGT/JD1 will QRV from Chichijama, Ogasawara from 8 to 18 February".
When I heard him on 30/40/80M, I thought he is from Ogasawara, so I did
not call him. But when I asked a local friend about JA2XW's address, who
said "JQ1NGT/JD1 is from Minami-torishima". It was WRONG info !
I worked him/JD1 on 10106 at 08:00z today and his QTH is certainly, hi.
As I said before, JG8NQJ/JD1 Minami-torishima will be until 23 April.

Despite of the contest, V5/W8UVZ was looking for JA with FB signal on
1824kHz around 21:20z and many other JAs could get him as their new-ones.
