On the 22nd September I managed to get my first Stateside SOTA contact with KC2YUG/P (Jesse), who was activating W2/GC=001 at 21:00 UTC. After making this contact I decided to look at my awards page to view the Mountain Hunter Status. Now this is where I need my help as the W2 prefix is not listed in my Mountain Hunter Status list. Does this mean I have to wait for Jesse to confirm our contact, or should the W2 prefix should be in my list but has failed to do so. I would appreciate any help on this subject.
By the way my good friend M0NTC (Gez) had the same contact and the W2 is showing in his Mountain Hunter Status list.

No Dave, read the rules about the Mountain Hunter award here, Summits on the Air and you will see why nothing is showing.

Nothing complicated. Jesse has uploaded his log which I looked at to see what he heard (my interest in propagation) and saw the errors so thought I would let you know!!!

Edit PS: I was wrong just looked at your log timing at 21.00 - you are recorded as M0IDC! So there is another M0 adrift perhaps…
