My next goal is to work and confirm the missing zones and joining the elite club of those 837 (1 March 2011) Radio Amateurs who have worked all 200 Zones on the the 5 bands.
Two stations from Zone 40 have previously achieved 5BWAZ – JW7FD and JW5NM (SK) – both of them have also achieved the full 200 Zone 5BWAZ.
I am proud to be the third station from Zone 40 to achieve 5BWAZ.
1718 Date: March 15, 2011
TF4M – 152 zones
