Tokelau Island makes #112

The recent CQ WW SSB contest was not only fun but productive for DXCC chasing. I contacted ZK3Q from the Tokelau Islands and they recently uploaded to LOTW to give Me confirmation number 112. The Tokelau Islands are a territory of New Zealand and are located South of Howland Island and NorthEast of Fiji and almost directly West of the Marquesas Islands.Looking at other islands in the area I notice Swain Island and the Kiribatis plus several others with recent Dxpeditions. Chasing DX really is a cool way to explore Geography and find the location of many unknown entities.
  The ARRL SSB sweepstakes contest starts tomorrow at 2100 UTC. I plan to participate when I am able.Looks like a busy weekend full of many obligations....so We see!!
