I just used the QTH that was given just in case there were some IOTA hunters out there.  I sure would have liked to make the contact but the prop just wasn't there this time.  I will certainly keep looking for him though.  You never know when you will get the right conditions and he will be in the log.
 
I'm not crying though.  My consolation prize was a QSO with SV1KMK/MM somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico which made my day.  Maybe the Falklands next time.

You're right, but we have some LU ops in group and I thought I make them feel better since the Falkland Islanders vote to keep British rule.  It's a big political mess and I can't fathom it.  Kind of like U.S. and Mexico fighting over Catalina Is !  :-)

Joe,

 

  It was the first time that I ever saw Falkland but couldn't get through the pileup.  I figured that someone with more power might.

Oh well, next time.
