signs.
According to the ARRL Letter, Wegrzyn was honored for his
one-person DXpedition to Sint Eustatius Island (PJ5), during which he contacted
8257 different stations over the course of two weeks. 3C0W was operated by
three Latvian hams – YL2KL, YL2GM, and YL1ZF. They contacted 18,812 separate
stations during their stay on Annobon.
