DX-pedition of the year in a very rare spot in the Sub Antarctic: Bouvet Island, one of the most wanted DXCC among WW Ham Radio. The big guns have already worked 3YØK on several Bands and Modes and now a question arise: “Where on the island they did set the two camps?”
A Spot posted by the Team on March 3, 2026 reports: -Team 3Y0K is already active from the Island at the two Base Camps-.
Among the information received it seems that one camp is for North America (North America Camp?) and one for the rest of the world. Both camps are safe and secure with 8 tents in total. One camp is located at the NA focus location.
In addition, the pics on the web show both Camps but so far nobody has mentioned about the exact location. (see the pics aside)
Another question that arose from the Hams/ Antarctic Chasers: «How can we know which of the two camps we have worked?»
Yes 2 camps on Bouvet Island is a fantastic opportunity, perhaps they could be 2 “New WAP References” but to know that, we must know the name of the 2 Camps and their exact location (Latitude and Longitude).
Eventually a Map of Bouvet Island showing the location of the two camps might be helpful.
In the lack of information, 3YØK will be consider just as WAP NOR-Ø2, but QRX for a while, maybe we can get more details soon!
