As much as it galls me to point this out, it looks like VP8/SG-042 named ’ Wickens Peaks - South’ appears to be named incorrectly. All references to this name on the internet originate from SOTA sources.
There are several other sources that specify the name as ‘Wilckens Peaks’, the main source reference
for the others being: Antarctica Detail which appears to have good providence…
I would guess that as “Wickens Peaks” is a plural, suggesting that there is more than one of them, the SOTA name specifies which peak is the SOTA summit.
Mark, you are right. I have misread the label. My excuse is the BAS map has it drawn all wibbly-wobbly. Oh, I got it right on the other one though. I will correct it.
My understanding is it is slightly more nuanced than that. The BAT/SGSSI VP8 callsigns will be changed to VP0 at the point of re-validation (with licences needing to be re-validated every 5 years)?
