8N0WOG is QRT! Thanks for lots of nice contacts.
The last day of it the olympic games in Nagano also was over after two weeks of many exciting scenes.

Belows are some snaps of the last QRV.
Pict of antenna beaming long path to EU This is the last special station for the olympics in 20th century. It had the opening ceremony last DEC 19 and got started QRV from JAN 10. It had been QRV for DX as well as many JAs during the period of the winter olympic games(FEB 8 to 22).

In the evening of the last day the long path to Europe was greatly open and we got a heavy pile up from EU.

One operating with EU pile ups W made more than 10,000 QSO's with very many JA hams and DX. I am proud of our contribution to the PR of Nagano Winter Olympics.

Lots of JA hams have visited and operate the special station and make QSO's.

In addition more than ten DX hams called on this station. Some came to Nagano for seeing the olympics, and other for working and were concerned with the olympics.

And also many volunteer hams have taken part in carrying this station for more than a month.
volunteer OP We have tried new modes like, SSTV and RTTY. But the period was too short to make enough quantity of the QSOs, we are sorry.

After all I was very happy to make some friends of DX and had a really wonderful time.

Hope to see you. 73 JG0SXC, Man
