Just a point of clarification, Jim and Diya are the first to receive licenses with the new ITU prefix of Z8. Last years ST0R DXpedition was the first licensed operation from the new country.
Congratulations to Jim and Diya on activating this new prefix.
Thanks for my new DXCC, Diya
Much success,

Thanks very much Diya for my #329 – now I only need 2 more for Honor Roll!
I look forward to working you and Jim on other bands, and very much appreciate your efforts!

Good work, Diya and Jim. Is that pic the South Sudan communications minister? Any opportunities to interact with other local groups?
Good Luck.
And I think that by now everyone should know that ST0R was the callsign of the first licensed operation from the new country.
Congratulations Guys,
When are you going to be QRV?
