If you've been on the HF bands lately, you probably
have heard the huge pileups of those calling BS7H.
This is the Scarborough Reef DXpedition, and currently
the rarest DX entity in the world. To give you an
idea of the difficulty of this place, check out this
video:

This is the video from the last expedition in 1997.
The reef is claimed by multiple countries, and
tensions between the Philippines and China over these
claims have made it difficult to put on the air in the
past.
I personally worked them on both CW and SSB relatively
easily from K6BW, testimony to how well the station
performs.
