RRR.  Glad we got that right. If you hear an S2 on the air, please post here on our ADXA site.

You are right San... my fat fingers hit the S instead of the C. :-)

Rory… 
Perhaps you worked C21WW in Nauru and not S21? That wud explain why you were beaming west to Nauru and not towards S21 in Asia. Might check on that and look on DXSummit to see if C21 was on FT8 at that time on 14.090… Check your FT8 printout page.

Thanks San... at first I thought that was strange too then I googled the call.  They have a web site with all of the operation info.  Full blown DXpedition.  Why QRZ didn't pick it up? Heck if I know.  I really don't think they are pirates though.  I still need to work them CW and hopefully RTTY.

Great daily catch Rory. S21 definitely the rarest but you may have worked SD and not WW. WW not listed on QRZ.com and only SD is on DXSummit as being spotted and most recently on Sept 16th. So it was a great catch for sure.
I do not have S2 ( the old East Pakistan that went to S2 in 1971 about 48 years ago).. Sure would like on RTTY or any WARC band or on 40/80/160.. You got the picture! Hi  Very rare to me and not sure when I worked the last one but had to be on 20/15 or 10 meters.  FT8 sure helps in poor prop conditions like now and signals being SO low. Congrats!
