Good morning,
Thanks to all that have responded to the email below.
I have been in contact with Josep EA6SA. The information on QRZ.com is incorrect.
His correct grid locator is JM19lo, this results in a 22 km reduction to the distance claimed previously. The correct distance is 7,766 km.
Good luck with pushing the envelope.
73, Pierre ZS6BB
