Arcala Radio, OG8X



The station OG8X, located within the aurora oval, is signed up for M2 category entry in the CQ WPX Contest from the small village of Arcala at 65 degrees North where temperatures still run below freezing.

Arcala Extremes is an alliance of serious contesters typically heading South but now they have made plans to face an ultimate challenge. Change North and South and hit the pot over the next few years when new Cycle 24 makes signals travel that far North. OG8X signals will be fluttery, coming with the sound of Northern Lights.

Here's the gang behind Arcala Extremes; OH1WZ, OH2BH, OH2IW, OH2MM, OH2UA, OH4JFN, OH6KN, OH7EA and OH8NC.
