Saturday bring quite a nice suprise and occassion to work rare wet square IP60WD after putting 4m antenna back on duty in the morning.
Beacuse of bad weather Martin GM6VXB stuck at his QRL /P on drilling Rig "Transocean Spitsbergen"

As usual with radio depending on workload and QRL breaks giving unique chance to work rare squares usually not active, or uninhabited at all.
Despite my temporary antenna limitations at ~3m above the ground signals were good and clear.
This resulted full QSO with both sides 73 exchanged.
Martin will move to another rare # JP01 on Monday, at least when WX permits to get out of IP60.
Good luck !
