Navassa Island 1972



The K1N DX-pedition is currently on Navassa Island (between Jamaica and Haiti).   This made me think of one of my earliest ham radio memories:  The 73 Magazine article on a 1972 operation on that island.   Here is a short video on that trip.  It is kind of wacky and fun.

    Thanks for posting the video of the 1972 expidetion. How is it that the United States controls an island between Jamaica and Hispanola?
