DX trips

Three islands so far, each with its own licensing paperwork, its own idea of what a "villa with a view" means for an antenna, and its own weather. Parks activated on these trips are written up on the POTA page — every island section below links straight to them.

POTA from St. Kitts

First licensed as V4/W4IO on St. Kitts! I activated Brimstone Hill Fortress (KN-0003) — a UNESCO site with cannons and great views — plus Royal Basseterre Valley (KN-0002). Rain couldn’t stop the fun. And there are monkeys and wild donkeys!
