Great news! Enjoy being rare DX.
Getting a sweep may still be a challenge as KP2 and KP4 had severe
hurricane damage to homes, towers and the power grid.

Hey fellow SS Ops..
I am happy to report that VY1AAA@VY1JA will again be active for Sweepstakes
this season.
J has done a lot of work on the station, moving it to an outer building so
it does not bother him when we operate. The Quad has been strengthened.
A 160m Double-L with 70-ft vertical section has been installed. After a
lot of time and work, the Alpha 9500 has been fully repaired. We have
remote antenna switching and azimuth control.
Looking forward to helping provide as many sweeps as possible!!
73,
Gerry VE1RM (aka W1VE)
PS: Some of our Canadian ops will be doing a M/S in CQWW SSB. Let's hope
conditions to Europe will be as good as they have been in the last few
weeks. Not sure if they will use one of the special calls or not.
