Hi Dan KC9KOW
 
What you are hearing on NIDXA are voice DX spots.
Paraphrasing, this was a DX spotter report that was translated to voice
by this robot.
 
W9ZW reports C3DS, a DX station callsign, heard on band 2
For the spot reporter location:
http://www.qrz.com/detail/W9ZW
 
The C3DS station was not found in QRZ at
http://www.qrz.com/i/qsl.html
 
so cross checked C3 call prefix at:
DXCC Countries List 
http://www.qrz.com/i/dxcc.html 
and found this in the listing every DX chaser needs.
C3A-C3Z     Andorra (Principality of)
