Re: [NCDXC Chat] Spot: RI42SP 14074 FT8 -- Rare Grid Field

 

Hi Al,

Glad you got him in your log, and yes, I agree his QRZ.com page isn't particularly helpful.? But there is a website which lets you track his day by day movement so you can figure out his actual grid square.? I'm not in a place right now where I can easily lay my hands on the address for that website, but give me a couple of days and I'll get it for you.

Well, I worked him but do not know where he is right now.? His CQ looks like this without a location.

Since I have not been in this chase, I do not know all the tools available to find out where he might be.? QRZ page was not very helpful.

Hi Guys,

RI42SP in presently in Grid Field BR05, which is almost at the north pole.? This Grid Field is EXTREMELY RARE -- it's the first time I've heard it in 70 years!? Whether you collect grid fields or not, I suggest you work this guy because there might never be another one in your lifetime!? :-)? He is aboard a Russian icebreaker doing arctic exploration.
