I was delighted to see five of my contacts with Tuvalu (T2C) confirmed this morning on the Logbook of the World (LoTW). The contacts covered a distance of 8,011 km (4,978 miles). These five DX contacts were made in October of 2023. I now have Tuvalu confirmed on 10M, 15M, 17M, 20M, and 30M. These move me closer to earning the DXCC Challenge award by bringing my total to 860 confirmed contacts.
