Ogasawara DX Service 2006.

JM1LJS/JD1 Hahajima Island.

     This time is the topic of Hahajima Island, Ogasawara Islands.

     This time, I left for Hahajima Island the first time.  The ship comes and goes in Hahajima Island from Chivhijima Island every day.  If anyone goes for father Island many times, it decides to go for mother Island as well soon.  A day trip is possible because that is the voyage of one way two hours, too.

     By the way, Chichijia Island is in Fater Island when he says in English.  Then, Hahajima Island is in Mother Island when he says in English.  Some person Islands of Ogasawara Islands are only these two.

     Incidentally, Anijima Island (English: Older Brother Island), Otoutojima Island (English: Younger Brother Island) and Magojima Island (English : Grandchild Island) are in Ogasawara Islands, too.  But, all of these are uninhabited islands.

     Though I think that how to give the name of the island is easy, too.  Ogasawara Islands is the islands discovered comparatively newly in the Japanese history.  That naming doesn't depend on history because it was an uninhabited island when it was discovered, either.

     QSO results in 2006 is shown in the following.

     JD1BLK Chichijima Island, Ogasawara Islands (Apr30-May 2) : 1.000 QSOs
     JM1LJS/JD1 Hahajima Island, Ogasawara Islands (May 4-5) : 488 QSOs

     Then, Hahajima Island isn't so suitable for DX service though there are no relations with the foreigner.  This island's hotel is located in the south, and a high mountain soon is in the one for the north (looking for Eu, JA, USA).  Then, there is no hotel on the north side of this island. Then, there is no electricity, either.  If it checks carefully, a good point will be found.  But, as for father Island and mother Island, IOTA is the same. It has difficulty, and there is no meaning which does real operation.
