171DX/1 has come to an end, the team is already back home safe and the polar bears can get back to normal life after the three guys left the island.

Despite lousy conditions, Chris, Patrik and Matt managed to work a nice number of 251 stations from 18 divisions (1, 3, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 26, 29, 30, 34, 35, 40, 47, 68, 108, 161, 233).

It's again time for another activation by the Shadow DXers!

This time, the team, consisting of 21DX116 Chris, 21DX139 Patrik and 26DX021 Matt, will show up from another rare DXCC in Europe. Beam north, gents, they will be on Spitsbergen (IOTA EU-026).

Chris, Patrik and Matt will leave for Longyearbyen on July 5th and hope to be able to setup equipment in the evening hours. Expect them to be on air July 6th at latest.
