QSL card is now ready. Many thanks to my friend Cedric/F5UKW for his warmest contribution on designing and providing QSL card.
ALL QSOs with A35JP/P from Niuatoputapu Island (OC-191) between 28 May to 3 June 2014 were already uploaded to LoTW on 1 July 2014. Should you have any problems with LoTW, please email me ja0rqv@jarl.com Please be sure that my call sign was A35JP/P. Location identifier "/P" is necessary.
QSL card is now being prepared. I am going to reply to all QSL card requests from later July. Thank you in advance for patient.
A35JP/P (OC-191) was QRT at 0319z 3rd June 2014 with lots of results. Approx. 3,000 QSOs were logged in .
Many thanks for call. Though it had been very difficult to reach there, I finally could land on the Island on 28 May 2014. And luckily I could get generator so that I could operate with 100W and vertical antenna for 7 days as planned.
I will submit required evidences to RSGB to be qualified. I am still on the way return to Japan. Appreciate if you could wait for QSL card. I will print QSL card and upload to LoTW as soon as possible after I returned JA in June.
Meanwhile, please enjoy some photographs of Niuatoputapu Is. It was really UNSPOILED.

2014年3月15日(土)のA35JPの50.120における6m運用は0437zでQRTしました。その直後に同一周波数で運用を開始したFK8IKを、誰かが間違ってA35JPとスポットしたため、FK8IKをA35JPと誤認してQSOされた方が相当数おられるようです。そのような方からQSLカードをいただいておりますが残念ながらNILでお返ししています。3/15のA35JPの6mCW QSOは、0220z~0437zの間のみ有効です。お気を付け下さい。
