[amsat-bb] K6PV/p Santa Catalina Is. DM03

[Andrew Glasbrenner]

For those of us trying to work all the grids in the lower 48 (similar to the Fred Fish award on 6m) it's one of the more difficult. ND9M/MM worked from there when his ship passed through, and that's the only operation I know of in recent times. The other tough ones have had some activity, like EL84 (K4T expedition) and EL58 (UT1FG/MM), but I think DM02 is the toughest.
